Newcastle Brown Ale is an authentic English ale with a unique taste. Full of flavour, yet easy to drink, it's been drunk and enjoyed since 1927. And it's becoming more popular in more countries each year. The 1980s saw Newcastle Brown Ale redesign its bottle label and adopt the slogan "The One and Only," an affectionate moniker originally popularised in 1928 by the Newcastle Journal. A new advertising campaign, entitled "The Dog," exploited the North East euphemism of "I'm going to walk the dog" meaning "I'm off to the pub for a bottle of Newcastle Brown Ale."

| Dissapointing. For a beer with such a history, this Ale should deliver more. An OK aroma and initial taste, then further on a somewhat distasteful bitterness seems to come into play that isn’t strong nor developed enough to really enhance the overall experience. Has quite a cult following in Mother England starting from quite a few years ago. Made in a smaller (than 375mL) 330mL size stubby – a point off for that alone. The stubby I tried was “Best Before: 30 04 07†(imported by CUB) but I still tend to think it was/is a better beer on tap in England, close to it’s roots and full glory. I’ll avoid it (in this form at least) in future. | |||
