Hello beer lovers and welcome to another edition of the
NorCal Beer Blog's brew review.
Tonight’s featured beer is Jack Russell Brewing Company
Brown Ale. As I said in a previous
review my family takes an annual trip to Lake Tahoe and a few years ago I heard
about Jack Russell Brewing Company in Camino, CA (which is on the way up to Lake
Tahoe). I enjoy swinging by the Jack Russell Farm Brewery and Winery and
the Larsen Apple Barn to pick up some beer, apples and pears.
From the Jack Russell Brewing Company website: “The oldest of beer
styles, our brown ale is a light bodied ale with a toasted malt profile, hints
of coffee and a low hop character.”
Let’s get started!
Appearance: Pours a deep brown with a thin tan head and nice
lacing.
Aroma: Primarily roasted malts, caramel and chocolate just
like brown ale should smell.
Taste: Smooth with caramel, chocolate, roasted and toasted
malts and a nutty flavor.
Overall: Light in body and refreshing, Jack Russell Brewing
Company’s Brown Ale weighs in at 4.25% ABV and is one that is session
worthy.
Cheers!
Mark Harvey
