Newcastle Brown Ale is a full-flavoured smooth ale with refreshing lightness. It was created in 1927 by Colonel Jim Porter in Newcastle, England during two years of painstaking development, where he sought to develop a unique tasting beer combining the full flavour of ale with easy drinkability. The end result was a smooth, caramel tasting ale with a slightly nutty aftertaste - the original and definitive brown ale. Newcastle Brown Ale is an iconic brand and the No.1 packaged ale in the UK.
