Our first-ever brown ale pays tribute to legendary homebrewer Mike “Tasty” McDole and his beloved “Janet’s Brown” recipe. Expect a toasty malt backbone, a touch of sweetness, and a generous dose of Cascade hops.

On my third flight of three beers, 18th April 2026, OC Local Taproom. Lovely mahogany brown body, off white crust on top. Malty, earthy and nutty, liked it.

Always fun to find a “Janet’s” and think of Tasty. At Pita Kabob in Visalia and they continue to get unique offerings. Slight roasted coffee. Hops a bit restrained vs Tasty’s original as I remember it. Nice to think about and pay respects to this legend. RIP, Tasty.
