Light brown copper color with a thin off-white head with short retention.
Malty aroma with notes of nuts, caramels and in some occasions a cocoa background.
Predominant nutty flavor with notes of caramel and slightly toasted malts and spicy and tangy hops, definitely English varieties. Dry aftertaste with a mild to medium bitterness.
Light body bordering watery with good carbonation.
Very light brown ale that has prioritized drinkability, but it misses body and flavor could be bolder, relatively to style. On a positive note it does improve over time and it has a good sweetness balance, meaning low sweetness and perceived hops, though not heavily hopped.

I bought and consumed a 600 ml bottle at Empório São Patrício, as it was on promotion for just R$9. On to the beer:

Not much of a surprise is the ruby brown color. What is a surprise is how little head developed on the pour, and the lace was absent. The nose has some good stuff. While a little "husky" at points, it does offer toffee, nuts, and nouget.

Klein Brown Ale shares some character found in the traditional English brown. It's nutty, toffee, sweet, nicely balanced, but there is also a linger of rough grain in the middle of it. The hops offer a subtle spiciness. Light bodied, a bit too light to be honest. Despite these few chinks in the armor, I keep drinking it without much problem.

It has a few minor flaws, but otherwise this is a good first impression by Klein.
