    Stand Down Brown from Uberbrew and BitchCreek from Grand Teton are worthy of seeking out.

    make that 4 for upslope, it's just unfortunate they don't distribute to me. Against the grain brown note is also very good.

    If you want to know how every "craft" beer from my country (Chile) taste like, try Bell's Best Brown.

    Samuel Smith's Nut Brown Ale is my favorite brown ale so far, and it's among the ones featured here. My second and third favorites are Bell's Best Brown Ale and Ithaca Nut Brown Ale, respectively.

    Also, Indian Brown is labeled as a Dark IPA now? :astonished:

    Since a lot of very good browns have already been mentioned, I'm gonna throw some love to a beer that I've had access to for over a decade, but only just tried the other night: Abita Turbodog. It's a really nice English brown from a brewery that I admittedly don't drink very often.

    Oh, and here's an obligatory "Sierra Nevada should bring back Tumbler in 6s and 12s in the Fall" post. Preferably in cans. Paging @sierranevadabill

    Hahah.

    It's not that great when even IPAs taste like that

    Well our IPAs no longer taste like beer and more like OJ milkshakes. Hopefully you have some time before your craft beer goes in that direction.

    It's a tough one between Founder's Sumatra and Cigar City Cubano Espresso.
