Flashback Anniversary Ale is an India Brown Ale with 6.8% ABV. This is the first beer we’ve made here that uses one single hop variety (Cascade) in the recipe in five separate additions. The fresh Cascade hop aroma and flavor is perfectly balanced with the dark roasted grains, making Flashback a very unique beer. We’re calling it an India Brown Ale to help illustrate its flavor to the consumer. It’s hoppy like an IPA but dark and roasty like a Brown Ale. Put them together and voila! Flashback at its finest!…

Bottle....mahogany on the pour...small white foam...and some dots of lacing....citrus aroma(orange)...malts with bready rye thing happening....its an odd combo....im a brown beer fan ...but the hops over power the brown in this one...its an interesting creation and after it opens for a while it improves....where then I taste just hops on the front..then a brown ale finish...sticky on the lips...rating from 3-2-2010

Gravity cask at GBBF 2013, Session 1 - London. Pours clear, golden-brown with a light, white film for a head. The nose has toasty bread and light citrus. Medium sweet flavour with simple bread, faint tang and dried orange. Light to medium in body with fine carbonation. Sweet finish, more bread, faint bitter earth. OK.

Dégustée en fût (azote) au Farmhouse Tap & Grill à Burlington, VT. De couleur ambrée foncée et claire. Nez de malt sucré aux petites notes rôties, moyen de houblon herbeux aux notes florales et fruitées (agrumes), léger de caramel sucré avec des traces de sucre brun. Moyennement ronde en bouche avec un pétillement doux ainsi qu’une texture moyennement crémeuse (azotée). Goût moyennement amer de houblon herbeux aux notes florales, citriques et fruitées (une amertume présente en arrière-goût toute la gorgée) auquel se rajoute rapidement un goût de caramel sucré aux notes brûlées et rôties ainsi que des traces de pain grillé puis en finale l’amertume de houblon reprend un peu d’ampleur en affichant un caractère légèrement asséchant et légèrement plus herbeux tout en étant appuyé par des notes de noix. Post-goût moyen et légèrement sec, moyen-léger amer de houblon herbeux aux notes florales avec un moyen-léger goût rôti ainsi qu’avec des notes de noix grillées. (17 avril 2013)
