Deep Cover Brown Ale is brewed in the tradition of the brown ales commonly enjoyed in the U.K. Despite its reddish-brown color, it is light bodied and slightly sweet, making it a very drinkable and refreshing brew. Dark caramel malts lend this ale its rich color, while toasted and Munich malts provide just enough body to be truly enjoyable.

Pours with ahead that goes away, but leaves pretty swanky lacing and all. Red/brown color. Slightly fruity aroma with a sort of metallic smell is that makes an ounce of sense. Taste is pretty good with definitely enough malts and a few hops. Easy to drink because of the not too heavy body.

(Bottle, Oliver Twist, Stockholm) Dark reddish brown colour with brief, off-white head. Malty, grainy nose with notes of dried fruit, caramel and hints of rubber. Malty taste with dark fruit, wild berries, cherries, caramel and hints of rubbery hops in a short finish. Low bitterness, slightly sweetish. Ok, but fairly middle-of-the-road-ish.

Deep red color, not much head. Caramelly-toffeish malty aroma with light coffeish notes. Quite light brew. A bit malty, some toffeish notes.

Has a slightly sweet yeasty aroma, almost like Nestle’s chocolate milk. Nicely attractive. Very dark color but not black, clear brown. The flavor of this is quite unique, almost chocolaty in nature. That aroma is so fun! Tho it has a slight detectable bitterness, it is well controlled and it makes this brew easy to enjoy. Good level of carbonation. Much better than Dogfish Head Indian Brown Ale and about on par with Tröegs Rugged Trail Nut Brown Ale. Can’t hold a candle to my local East End Fat Gary. Overall, a very enjoyable brew.

Sampled from a 12 oz brown bottle this beer poured a ruby brown color with a small tan head. The aroma is roasty malts and fruity hops. The flavor is roasty and toasty malts with a light floral hop presence. I am not much of a fan of the style but this was surprisingly tasty.

Orange to copper color with nice tan head. Aroma is sweet caramel malts. Flavor is a little one dimensional with sweet caramel maltiness. There’s also some pale malts and a hint of maybe citrus hops.

Bottled at Oliver Twist, Stockholm. Clear ruby, average head. Aroma of sweaty hops and roasty malt. Medium bodied with clean mouthfeel. The roasty malt dominates the picture, with apricots and soapy hops simmering on top. A pleasant enough brown ale, well above average.
