Brown Ales

I can't tell you how much Dogfish Head's Indian Brown Ale has rejuvenated my interest in brown ales (which wasn't all that much to begin with). I've had Sam Smith's Nut Brown, a seemingly classic for the style, but Indian Brown to me embraces to the fullest what a brown ale can be in terms of flavor. Luckily us Californian's are now gaining access to the Dogfish Head beers and will soon have a diverse lineup of beers to choose from (although I had to trade for the Indian Brown because at this time only 1 DFH beer is being distributed to CA- the Palo Santo Marron).
