Finally I get to be around for the BBC's first seasonal beer this year, a new entry into the brewpub's lineup, following their general English Ale approach: Chicó Brown.
However, for this seasonal, for the first time around I came out fairly disappointed.
In fact, I thought i was brought a pint of porter from the looks of it at first. Brown ales can do this also, so I didn't second-guess it. The smell was faint, some roasted malt was present but was very discreet and seemed to be a rather unamusing branch of the porter itself.
A feeling confirmed as i tasted it and, rather than getting a strong, original flavour, I thought i'd come accross a watered down version of the porter. thinner, about the same taste pattern, poorly carbonated. I think I'll stick with the classics.
honestly, it's an ok beer, just not the level I look for in the general BBC spectrum.
