My grading scale

It is subjective, but I think you'll be able to understand where I'm coming from:

1-3 "Horrible" : NEVER BUY THIS!!!! (Or buy it just to see what crappy beer tastes like.)

4-5 "Ok" : These beers need a little work. Usually from a company known for another type of brew.

6-7 "Good": It's ok, for now.

8-9 "Great" : Try this at least once, you'll be happy you did :D

10!!!!! "Godly" = This is attainable, but the most subjective of all grades. If I ever give a beer a 10 it'll be because it blows your mind.

Brewhouse Brown Ale by the Real Ale Brewing Company

Another local product of the Real Ale Brewing Company. This particular brew comes in sampler 6-packs for under 7 bucks!


Tasting notes:

Perhaps overchilled, the beer poured into the glass with little to no head or carbonation.

Color was brown as title would suggest.

Smell was malty with a nutty undertone; faint aromatics overall, most likely as a result of overchilling/ sans carbonation factor.

Tasted of toasty malt, caramel and smoothly finished out with just a hint of hops. Reminds me a little of Newcastle but with a prominent hops finish.

OK overall. I'll try the beer again but less chilled to see if that effects the head/carbonation which it suspect it will. I expect to enjoy this alot more when served under ideal conditions.

5 (for now)
