    Brown’s Brown Ale poured a light brownish color with a finger width off white head.  The aroma has light malt and little nuttiness.  The body is thin, with some light malts, more nuttiness, and a decent amount of coffee flavor.  The finish is pretty mild; semi-dry with the continued nuttiness drying out the mouth.  Overall, this is an average beer and a little bit of a disappointment since Browns makes some very good stuff.  The body was a little too light for either my liking or the Brown Ale style.  The hops are absent on the palate and the body seems a little hollow.  There is much better stuff to try from the crew in Troy.          

The ultimate resource for beer drinkers!
