Legend Brown Ale

Awesome. This is up there with the Rogue brown ale. Smooth, baked-bread like flavor and smell. Tan color. Really good stuff.

Bell's Best Brown Ale

Rating: positive

Dark brown in the glass, reddish color when held up to the light. Smells nice.

It's not particularly bubbly, virtually no head, which is good for a brown ale in my opinion. But in spite of this, it has a little of a bite to it that I normally associate with carbonic acid in highly carbonated beer. It's probably a combination of a little more acidic and a little more hoppy than I was expecting. The initial flavor isn't as good as Rogue's hazelnut brown, but the aftertaste has a very nice baked-bread kind of flavor, which redeems it.

Possibly the best brown ale I've ever had, better than Samuel Smiths, even. Light brown in the glass, smooth texture and flavor. Definitely will buy again.
