DIShGo Posted August 11, 2016 Share Posted August 11, 2016 It was a hot day in DC, and being from California, I just about melted when the air condititoner went on the fritz at my friend's house. He thought a frosty beer would do me good, so we went in search of something cold and tasty to take my mind off of the blazing temperatures. I ran into the shop, quickly scanned my options, and grabbed Ellie's Brown Ale because I like brown ales and it had a dog on the label that looked just like my chocolate lab. My totally random choice was a good one. This ale smelled wonderful--toasty and malty--and tasted even better. It was smooth, with malt, chocolate and caramel flavors. It was nutty, with just the right amout of bitterness. Alas, it doesn't appear to be available anywhere in the San Francisco Bay area. I suppose I will have to wait until I go to Colorado or head back to DC to taste it again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
