Newcastle Brown Ale is the best beer ever!

Ranked #13,753 in Food & Cooking, #233,872 overall

Three cheers for Newcastle.

I think Newcastle Brown Ale is one of the best beers out there. It's been one of my favorites for years now. There is nothing I like better than going to my local pub and having a nice pint of Newcastle fresh from the beer tap. Add a club sandwich to that equation then you really are talking about paradise, but that's another subject in itself. Please let me know if you agree with me that Newcastle Brown Ale is the best beer out there, or if you have one you think is better. I'm open to everyone's opinion, as long as you clearly express your opinion and not just just leave a stupid comment trying to push people's buttons.

HOLY COW....no other beer comes close!! The draught is better than the boottle

RX-Medical-Web says:

I love Newcastle also!

Rickie From Sacramento says:

Im 24 years old, and this has been my favorite beer for about a year now....Definitely the tastiest beer..period ! I laugh when I see dudes drinking bud light..lmfao !

dmsj says:

Definately my beer of choice! Many say "how can you drink that heavy beer?" without really knowing that New Castle is much lighter than is looks. It's my favorite summer beer because it goes down smooth without being heavy or hoppy like many microbrew summer ales. It's my "drink it all night" beer!

Erik says:

Greatest. Beer. EVER. Period.

Jake says:

Excellent beer! Had it for the first time today at Cody's Road House with the barbecued baby back ribs! Newcastle Brown Ale will be my main beer choice after today!

Jess says:

I love newcastle and so does my boyfriend..but I want to branch out a little. I do not like IPAs but am wondering what other beers are comparable to newkie? Any ideas?

ftbstrd95 says:

no matter how much i get sick... newcastle4life!

Michael Holshouser says:

Yummy-yum-yum!

Luca says:

I've found Newcastle in California... I'm addicted, Right now... this is my sweet riun...

DArmok says:

It is def the best ale around

I found it on my one and only tripto England
it was a hopeful search in the us andto my surprise it's a standard import
standard my ass! Thebest. I love the unique Carmel brownearthy taste that satisfies a beer craving and the experience / cosumption is ahhhhhhhhh

Robbo says:

fully agree!

Luke M. says:

Bar-none; the best friggin' beer out there as far as I am concerned. Red Hook, Moosehead and Sierra Nevada are distant seconds. Newcastle outpaces others for two major reasons in my book (1) I love the the creamy...almost unexplainable flavor...it's like autumn baked bread and so..oh sooooooo smoothy smooth. No bloat or super-carbonation issues either. It really is nice to drink a flavorful beer that simultaneously fails to float you like an unhappy balloon.

Denis says:

New Castle is simply the best tasting beer I've ever had. Tap or bottle, the taste is consistent and so smooth.
Guiness? no way.

Bill says:

New Castle is great but it gives me a bad case of the beer shits the next morning. Bass and Sam Adams don't.

JonK says:

I'ts one of the best beers ever, and it's by far the smoothest, easiest to drink.

StephE says:

Newcastle is wonderfully smooth beer with a hint of sweetness. I love the taste, but it's too rich for me to drink very many. It's pretty different from Guiness (which I love too) so I wouldn't even compare the two.

SubSeven says:

New Castle is a great brown to just kick back and drink all night, but if you get the chance to try some Samual Smiths nut brown Ale then you'll know what the BEST tasting brown is all about.

FloydBogart says:

Okay but I gotta make it
a tie with Negra Modela!

The_Bard says:

Where have I been to miss this? Of course it's the best beer ever!
I was brought up with it as a child - my Grandfather even smuggled it into my milk when I was a baby (hic!). I even gave a bottle every night to our Boxer dog. Boy did we have fun together pub-crawling!

No way, Monkeybrain!

JC says:

It's okay. I prefer Shipyard Pumpkin Ale but it only comes around during Halloween. http://www.beerkits4homebrewing.com

drgrayson says:

I live in Newcastle Upon Tyne. Nobody touches it apart from sketchy looking dudes who find the large bottle useful in cases where they need to glass someone to get their point across during a pub argument. Basically, the beer is a joke that Geordies play on the rest of the world.

Todd says:

Newcastle is great but I like Sierra Nevada Pale Ale a little better.

susannaduffy says:

Give me a Guiness any day!

harryfielder says:

I have drunk N.B. once but much prefer half a dozen pints of Guinness and have drunk it for 56 years. I'm as fit as a butchers dog.

Aitch,

Ralf says:

Super hoppy IPAs from craft brewers are the best.

spacebar says:

It's OK.

Have you ever tried Sunderland's Double Maxim - that shit's the bomb! (I'm not just saying that 'cos I'm a makem)

Reg_Brittain says:

When I was in college, I found Newcastle and thought it the bomb! Then, microbrews exploded. Over the years, as I have tried many a craft beer, I have been quite fond of many beers, but not Newcastle.

Today, I would not even say I like Newcastle. I am not even sure when I last drank one, but I recall thinking it bland.

Try the range of wheat ales, cask conditioned ale (in the UK it's called "real" ale), the ales brewed by Unibroue of Montreal, and of course Guinness, and reconsider your position.

archetekt says:

Newcastle is a very good ale, full of flavor and very smooth, but I still prefer Stouts and doppelbochs.

Bobby_Billiards says:

I'm sorry but I'm gonna have to say Guinness beats out Newcastle.

archetekt says:

I will try it and get back to you. But I've always preferred stout over ales.

I am a fan of beer, but also like to mess around on the internet in my spare time. I grew up about 5 miles away from a brewery, and spent many summers... more »
