I discovered the delicious taste of NewCastle while @ Blake's, a bar on Telegraph Ave. in Berkeley. Me and my friend left a business meeting and decided to get dinner and some drinks. He recommended some...

Pros: Complex Flavor, Light Feel Cons: Clear Bottles, Expensive
I can honestly say that this was my first favorite beer. Its distinct flavor and pleasing aroma bring back good memories. Also, its carmel color and rich head only lend to the complexity of this fine brew.
It is always the first beer gone...

Pros: smooth and flavorful with plenty of character Cons: more expensive compared to your average bud
The first time I tried Newcastle Brown Ale I was extremely hesitant since I favor lagers. I was pleasantly surprised - I expected a heavy ale with a bitter aftertaste, what I got was a smooth, flavorful ale that was quite refreshing. Newcastle Brown is...

Pros: great taste, perfect body Cons: expensive
Newcastle is an outstanding beer. It has a very smooth somewhat sweet taste. It is not bitter at all. It has a dark body but it is not as full or filling as most dark beers. Personally, I think it has the perfect body, not too light and not too full....

Pros: Nice change of pace Cons: Expensive
New Castle strikes the pallet with a thick, complex barrage of flavors. The bold flavor, rich aroma, and deep brown hue make New Castle a wonderful change of pace.
Not my idea of an every day beer, New Castle is just what the doctor ordered for a...

Pros: smooth, consistent, no bitterness; delicious at many serving temperatures; perfect companion for a pub evening Cons: filling beverage, light eaters may want to think twice before pairing this ale with meals
Many a night spent in a the pubs of Dublin and London cultivated my love for this beer. Guinness is too heavy, U.S. domestics are too light, but Newcastle - - simply perfect.
This easy drinking ale is a perfect choice when you want to savor...

Pros: Smooth. Cons: Dead taste!
I am a great fan of ales, and in particular, Guiness and all Irish varieties. I've had a lot of experience drinking/tasting this sort of alcohol. And this ale is perhaps the flattest I've ever tasted. Chilling it seems to detract from its flavor, as...

Pros: Exquisite taste Cons: The label
Newcastle Brown Ale is an absolutely majestic ale, and truly fit for royalty. Everything about this ale is exquisite. The color is a very deep, rich amber with just a hint of auburn. The aroma is mellow and pure and excites the taste buds just by its...

Pros: Unique Cons: Newcomers take care
Coming from a small country across the water I am very used to this drink. It originates from the 'city' (population about 250,000) of Newcastle, in the North East of England and is a favourite amongst students here.
Partly because it...

Pros: Thick bold taste Cons: none
I recently visited my friend in Arizona and while we were chilling by the pool he gave me Newcastle Brown ale. I am a very big fan of thick full bodied ales and my favorite until then was Guiness. However when I took a drink of the Newcastle brown ale I...

Pros: Gorgeous, fantastic, beyond compare. Cons: Habit forming.
Newcastle in a bottle is one of the four or five best beers you can find in a good-sized liquor store, but Newcastle from a tap is far finer. Richly satisfying without that ponderousness found in so many premium brews, its flavor is bright but subtle,...

Pros: taste, smell Cons: price???
I usually don't like dark beers, but I am fond of two brands; Guinness and Newcastle Brown Ale. Its brown color makes me think that the beer will taste so much more of hops than it does, and the barley is roasted to perfection. It's full flavor of, well,...

Pros: Great Taste
A very refreshing brew Cons: Can be a little expensive
Newcastle Brown Ale is enjoyed by both men and women. It is really just a great beer. If you love beer you will love Newcastle, but beware as it packs a bit of a punch. It is full bodied with a wonderful taste and a great color. It goes down smooth and...

Pros: SMOOOOOOOOTH Cons: None Noted
I was introduced to Newcastle by pure luck! I ordered it because it stood out from the other 200 beers this bar offered. The large letters were easy to read from a distance. Anyway, I haven't looked at another beer since.
I'd like to think...

Pros: Good travelling Ale Cons: drunk by Pseudo's who can't take 8 pints of Guiness
I'm english so this is spelt using the OED not the poxy Webster's.
Like all british beers, Newkie Broon ale is revered by legend rather than by taste. because of its ability to travel well without losing flavour it has gained poularity at...
