| Date: Dec 20, 2018 | |
| Beer: The Mitten Brewing Company - Triple Crown Brown | |
| Style: Brown Ale | |
| Source: Grand Rapids, Michigan | |
| ABV: 4.2% | |
| "A balanced, inviting, award-winning brown ale. TCB has the malt | |
| character of a bigger beer in a package you can session any time" | |
| Triple Crown Brown | |
| I'm not typically a fan of brown ales. This one from the Mitten | |
| makes a noble attempt at changing my mind, but it's ultimately | |
| unsuccessful. The beer tastes only faintly nutty which is a | |
| positive in my eyes and one of the big complaints that I have | |
| against browns. I just don't see the appeal of this style. It | |
| tastes watered down and bland to me. It needs the addition of | |
| a new bold or spicy ingredient to really give it a kick. | |
| - Would I buy it again? No | |
| - How much could I drink in one night? A can before getting bored | |
| of it and switching to something else. |
