English Brown Ale - a toasted nut, chocolatey, caramel character. Silky & full flavored beer. 1876 Philadelphia Centennial International Exhibition (the first world fair held in the US), our hometown mill, George H. Gilbert Manufacturing Company, won an award for an imposing display of flannels & blankets. Everything is better with flannel!

Pours a somewhat cloudy dark ruby brown with barely any head.
Bold, sweet aromas straight off the pour: brown sugar, caramel, toffee, slight molasses. There's also a slight fruitiness that plays well with the sweet notes and earthy/nutty undertones that build as it warms.
The taste follows this profile, but not as bold. Brown sugar and caramel up front that quickly mixes with berry and dark fruit through the middle. Nearing the finish, some earthy bitterness and nuttiness comes through along with brown bread. The aftertaste is slightly sweet and nutty.
Medium-light bodied and very low carb gives a thin, smooth feel. Finish is somewhat sweet but not sticky.
Overall, a decent attempt at an English Brown with individual components that stand out nicely but that misses the mark when considering the whole. With an undated can and little carb, I do wonder if this had been on the shelf a little too long.
