http://www.charteroakbrewing.com/beers/1687-brown-ale Charter Oak's 1687 Brown Ale (this was the year the legend of the Charter Oak took place, and Wadsworth hid the document in the majestic Oak Tree - later to become know as The Charter Oak) is an American style which is slightly more robust than the traditional English Brown Ale. This beer will be brewed to a dark copper shade and be somewhat sweet and malty with distinctive toasted flavors from both our premium specialty roasted and chocolate malted barley, also allowing for a faint undertone of caramel. This style is lightly hopped for balance and this ale will prove to be a wonderful selection for a sessionable beer. Our medium-bodied, limited bitterness and hop aroma will make this an excellent choice. Look for our 1687 Brown Ale at your favorite watering hole in June.

    Aroma: 7 | Appearance: 8 | Mouthfeel: 8 | Flavor: 8 | Overall: 9

    Bread dough, vanilla, baking spices, in the nose. Deep Ruby Brown body with an off-white head leave the skim coat and a touch of lace. Mouth is both creamy and tingly nice carbonation level fully coating. There's a lot going on in the flavor with fairly distinct phases. Start creamy with just a hint of dark fruit in the middle and a touch of charred malt and chocolate towards the end. Aftertaste is slightly sweet slightly oily and slightly bitter, very drinkable.
