There is a long story to this malty ale. It was first brewed in the spring 2006 in Nørrebro Bryghus in Copenhagen, Denmark, as a joint brew between Nøgne Ø and Nørrebro. Nørrebro calls their version “Double Knot Brown”.

Appearance- dark, mahogany, ruby hints, a small frothy beige head. Aroma- very nutty- pecan, almond, dates, dark malts, brown bread, hops, vanilla, raisin, treacle, toast. Taste- sticky dark malts, sweet treacle-glazed bread, pecan pie, honey, roasted toasted nuts, slightly burnt toast, undercurrents of dark fruits. Sweet finish. Really nice and well-crafted.

Bottle shared thanks to Mark. Slight gusher. Almost clear nice chestnut brown with huge bubbly beige head, very hard to pour. Fruity hops, lime, pineapple, mango, caramel, toffee, dried apricots, cinnamon, cloves, marzipan, garam masala, chestnuts. Medium sweet and very light bitter. Medium bodied with lots of carbonation. Very good stuff, I just wish it wasn’t so ridiculously over carbonated.

500ml bottle from Beers of Europe. Pours hazy brown with a thick cream-coloured head. Aromas of rich chocolate malt, oranges, something woody like a newly-erected shed. Taste is beautifully balanced between sweet malt and bitter hops. Creamy texture, clean finish.

Brown color with nice tan head. Aroma is nutty, malty, earthy hops, some thick black chocolate. Taste is black chocolate, surprisingly hoppy, more nuttiness, very complex. Carbonation is medium. An excellent Brown Ale.
