Commercial Description:
The Brown Ale is a traditional beer related to the first beers ever brewed commercially. Brewed with an interesting blend of malts, including pale two-row Harrington, Metcalfe, and Maris Otter malt, Caramel, Munich, and roasted Carafa malts, the Brown Ale shines with a deep mahogany luster. The malt flavor is complex and deep as well, with notes of biscuit, nut, and caramel. With moderate hop bitterness, a deep malt body, and a fruity ale fermentation character, the Samuel Adams Brown Ale satisfies the soul and doesn’t overwhelm the tongue.

Pours a dark to red colour with a caramel-like colour top, aroma remiscent to caramel, great palate sweet and nutty. I FUCKING LOVE IT!! This one’s too good to be a mainstream beer.

Probably my favorite from Sam Adams. This beer has a damn good flavor. It’s medium to full flavored with a heavy body and amazing aftertaste. I bought it in a variety pack and will buy this again.

One of the best Sam Adams brews. A good beer to drink when you want to take your time and enjoy a beer with flavor.

This brew is very similair to Sam Adam’s Black Lager, but mellowed down some. This is a toasty ale, with a heavy body and distinguished flavor. Not terribly hoppy, but just enough to give it a good, complex flavor. The malts provide a great, smooth texture and fill out the tones of chocolate, spices, and cream. A very good brew that left me surprised, and wanting more!

Pours dark brown. Initially the burt malt comes through, but the beer finishes smooth with a nice caramal flavour. Not too sweet.
