Dogfish Head - Indian Brown Ale



Dogfish is one of my favorite breweries and rarely misses the mark. The Indian Brown was another example of that.


Getting 99 style points and 98 points overall on Rate Beer is an adequate review of this ale. lately I've been drinking darker beers so this fit the bill exactly for me. A nice brown ale with a kick of hops. Coming in at 50 IBU this wasn't on the hoppy side, but gave it something that turned the super mild brown ale into something a little more interesting.


I often ask the death row question of what would your last beer be? Almost everyday mine changes depending on the weather and what I'm in the mood for. For two weeks I have been wondering how I get more of this beer. Unfortunately it is no distributed to any stores in San Diego. To get this one bottle I had to pack it in my luggage all the way from DC.




It says the appropriate glassware is a dimpled mug. I'm not really sure what a dimple in the mug will add to the flavor, but this was the closest thing we had at the time.


All in all a really good beer. A solid 8.5 or higher. If you can get this year round consider yourself lucky and if your feeling generous send me one.
