Old Castle
Elm City Brewing Co.

 

A Nut Brown, very similar to Newcastle according to the waitress. Not really. My fist reaction to the flavor was that it was too sweet with not much else going on. After a few more sips it still had that initial sweet bite but turned quite bland and almost watery. Appearance was dark brown topped with a small head. The beer was merely average and rather bland all around.

Served as a medium brown colored beer with moderate off-white head.
Smell is signicficant for some light caramel notes.
Taste is malty with some nice caramel aspects present.
Finishes with more malty sweetness and virtually no hops to be found.
An enjoyable middle of the road beer.
