Description:
Our most popular beer at Legend is our Brown Ale. A style with the origins predating modern brewing practices, the brewing of Brown Ale as we know it began in 1927 in Newcastle, England. This version was paler and dryer than previous brown ales to compete with the popular pale ales of Burton, England. Our full-bodied version of a Brown Ale is brewed with Caramel and Roasted malts and hopped for balance with Tettnang and Mt. Hood. 6.0% ABV.

Varietal Definition
English Style Brown Ale:
The precise definition of English Brown Ale would depend on where you are in England. It is nowadays much more closely associated with Northern England, specifically Tadcaster and Newcastle, home to Newcastle Brown Ale. These medium-bodied reddish-brown beers are malt accented with a nutty character, a gentle fruitiness, and low bitterness. Alcohol is moderate, a maximum of 5%ABV. The much less prevalent Southern English style, not seen abroad, is much darker in color, sweeter on the palate, and made in a lighter style.
