Episode 12 - English Brown Ale

We continue with our month of English/UK beers. This week we dive into the English Brown Ale. A bona fide English beer classic, English-style brown ale is easily one of the most iconic beer styles. Toasty, robust and with a bit of chocolate maltiness, the English brown ale is a meal in a glass, but offers unlimited opportunities for memorable food pairings. Neither flashy nor boring, the English brown is a beer with enough variation to keep devotees ordering them time and time again. Style examples: 

• 1. Alesmith - Nut Brown
• 2. Cigar City – Maduro Brown
• 3. Newcastle – Brown Ale
•  ABV: 4.2 – 5.9% IBUs: 20-30 Color: 12-2 Our sample beer for the week: MacNutty Macadamia Nut Brown Ale – 5.5% N/A IBU Beer as described by brewer: Things were getting a bit squirrely over here; it must be the trays upon trays of macadamia nuts we hand-roasted for this beer. Some would say we’ve gone nuts – but taking our time over each and every step is part of what makes every one of our craft brews unique.
  
  We love a good brown ale, and we’re certain you’ll love this one too, from the rich nutty flavor, to the luxurious dark brown color.
  
  Brewed with real macadamia nuts toasted in our own kitchen along with top quality malts and hops, we hope you’ll join us in raising a glass.
