Day 14: Bell's Best Brown Ale

Name: Bell's Best Brown Ale

Brewer: Bell's Brewery - Kalamazoo, MI

Style: Brown Ale

Alcohol Content: 5.8%


Review: A nice dark caramel head with some soft fruit notes. It smells richer than my recent 1888 Bock with a taste to match. The richer flavor lends itself to being a bit sweeter than a typical ale, but with the right amount of hops to balance it out. There's a mild toastiness as well. The beer finishes with a slight bitterness, but fortunately very smooth with a sense that there is some richness. This is a great representative Brown Ale
