Scottish & Newcastle (part of Heineken International) - Newcastle Brown Ale (Tadcaster, North Yorkshire, England)




Me and the family were eating at Andolini's in North Chuck last Sunday when I noticed that Newcastle Brown Ale was on tap.  I remember drinking it a few years ago but didn't remember much about it so I decided to try it again.  Right off, the experience started going down hill.  The aroma has a strong alcohol scent with a weak malt smell.  The taste has a weak malted flavor with a strong alcohol presence, with way too much carbonation.  No wonder I didn't remember it.

This beer doesn't live up the the hype.
