(DIR) 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" (IMG) 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.
