American Brown Ale

That's a ship and yep those are flags.
The American Brown is our best selling beer and it has been welcomed time and time again onto the taps of so many pubs and restaurants around town. We do our best to keep this amply supplied at all of our distributors and hope that if you have a printed list that you would be kind enough to consider it for your list.
This beer was poured at our big debut at the Stlhops Anniversary Party in 2011. The recipe came out of Dylan's home brewing arsenal and without this great beer, we would no doubt be a smaller brewery.
- Jake Hafner, Captain of The Barley Ship
Long enough ago, all beer would’ve been brownish because of the difficulty of cooking the malted grain without darkening it. Same was true in America until the fancy-pants German immigrant brewers started brewing pale lagers which eventually took over. Thankfully, American homebrewers and a few bold craft brewers like us have revived American Brown Ale for your pleasure. Malty, caramelly, tart and toasty, earthy and citrusy, with delicious hints of bitter chocolate and dark roasted coffee. Y’know that story about the hypocrite who tattled to President Abraham Lincoln about General Grant’s drinking? Ol’ Abe answered, “Well, find out what he’s drinking so I can send a barrel to every general in the army.” We’re pretty sure Grant was drinking The Civil Life American Brown.
