I was drawn to Ellie's because of the chocolate lab on the front of the bottle. I'm a sucker for what I think is cool packaging every time.
It wasn't as good a beer as I had hoped for, but it was ok. It had a sweet maltiness, but transitioned into a mix of nuts and vanilla flavoring. I rarely say this, but at 5.5% alcohol, it may have been too strong for this beer. The finish was a dry alcohol taste that wasn't great.
Brewed by the Avery Brewing Company in Boulder, Colorado, Ellie's Brown Ale is one of the many beers that they produce. I will be open to trying more of their products, but it will be a while before I give Ellie another shot.
