Good People Brewing Company‘s Brown Ale pours a hazy, dark mahogany with toffee and fresh, whole grain pancakes & maple syrup-accented notes. A terra cotta mouthfeel is followed by a crispy, grassy finish. Close to your typical English brown ale (malty backbone) yet Americanized with some hops (Willamette, Cascade). Slakeable at 5.8 percent ABV, canned and “legally brewed since 2008.”
