English Brown Ale

[billk911]

Can anyone tell me what commercial beer the Brewers Best English Brown Ale tastes like.

 

[Joos]

never had that but for commercial i like old speckeled hen(still a micro).Or newcastle is drinkable.

That was my first extract kit! I tried it head-to-head with Newcastle, and it seemed pretty close to me.

Old Speckled Hen isn't a Brown Ale at all! I'd place it as an Ordinary Bitter.

Never heard of it, but if you're looking for an example of an English Brown, Samuel Smith's Nut Brown is a good choice.

I agree with Yooper, although mine came out a bit less bitter and more sweet than a Newcastle. Maybe my partial boil or higher ferment temps. 68-70
