Chocolate Covered Coffee Brown
BAD Brewing Company

My BRAH-in-law bought me a crowler of this beer for my birthday. It poured a nearly opaque dark mahogany amber with off white head that is leaving some lace. The scent had coffee notes with subtle chocolate highlights. The taste was nicely balanced and easy to drink with bold coffee flare and mochacchino zeal. The mouthfeel was medium in body and had good carbonation. Overall it is a solid beer.

 

Reviewed from notes. The appearance was a semi-dark brown color with a finger’s worth of white foamy head that fell off at a decent pace. The aroma had some coffee beans, roasted nuts, clean caramel/toffee malt base, some dark fruits, milk chocolate, some dark chocolate and some earthy/grassy hops coming across somewhat bitter. The flavor blended fairly well between the roast and the sweet clinging in the aftertaste and riding into the finish. The feel was about medium bodied with a fair sessionability about it. Coffee bean roastiness seemed to meld gently with the malty smoothness. Carbonation felt fine and the ABV felt appropriate. Overall, pretty nice brown ale worthy of having again.

 

Chocolate and coffee notes shine through a heavy malty flavor

Similar to Kona Brown from Perrin.
A fine coffee brown ale. Coffee quite present, so be ready.
