2018 Advent Beer Review 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.
