Pros: flavorful, better than Killians Cons: import, a little heavy for me to eat a meal with
This is not your little brother's beer. If you are a big Bud-from-the-keg fan, this beer is not for you. Newcastle is a darker more flavorful beer. It is pretty similar to George Killian's Red but has a more robust flavor and less aftertaste. It is a...

Pros: Consistently great! Cons: None
If I was stranded on a desert island, and could have an unlimited supply of only one beer, Newcastle Brown Ale would be the one. What can I say, I love the stuff. It is one of those ales with a unique taste. There is no other brew in the world that...

Pros: Sweet, full and unique Cons: distinctive, might not appeal to all
Everyone who's tasted it has an opinion about Newcastle. Some, like myself, find it ideal but others find its sweet caramel undertone too cloying. It's not a beer you'd pound through a 6 pack while watching sports, it's more of a conversational beer....

Pros: A Hearty, Substantial Beer Cons: Absent
Drink me...
That's what my very first bottle of Newcastle Brown Ale seemed to whisper to me as it sat there on the table, nondescript. So innocent I was to believe that drinking a bottle of beer could be anything less than an emotional...

Pros: light, sweet, not too strong Cons: well... it's beer
I am not going to pretend to know a lot about beer. In fact, just about the only thing I know about beer, is that for the most part, I hate it. Most beer that I have tasted is just plain awful, either too watery or too strong. I prefer liquor drinks,...

Pros: smooth taste, pleasant aroma and aftertaste Cons: a slight amount of bitterness towards the finish
Though I'm not a beer expert, It's a fair statement to say that I've had a few beers in my day. My waist no doubt supports this premise as its expanded to a rather robust 34. If I get to 36 then I may have to reevaluate the utility of this...

Pros: A great brown ale, for a good price Cons: Tap is worse than bottle.
Newcastle Brown Ale is my favorite dark beer. While not entirely dark and bitter like a Beck's or heavy like a Guinness, Newcastle provides a great balance for those who are sick of the mass produced Millers and Buds, but appreciate the taste of an full...

Pros: Great beer! Cons: a little bit expensive
I do not drink dark beers very often because they are usually too strong for everyday drinking. Newcastle Brown Ale has a nice brown color and interesting, a little bit sweet aroma, sorry, but many mass produced beers do not have any aroma at all. The...

Pros: Taste texture, and smell Cons: Expensive
Newcastle has a body, taste, and scent that puts all other beers on a different level. With a deep sugary taste, this jolly English ale is by far the best beer on the market today. If you are going to have a nice evening sitting around the fireplace...

Pros: Smooth, not overly carbonated, goes down easy Cons: Goes down quicker than I'd like
When the event calls for smooth refreshment without a lot of carbonation to get in the way, nothing soothes the thirst better than Newcastle Brown Ale. Whether Ive been working out in the hot Texas sun or just sitting down to a great home-cooked ...

Pros: Easy to get hold of, consistent, nothing to dislike Cons: Nothing to shout about
I'm writing from a British perspective so the beers I'm used to drinking will no doubt differ from those some of you drink on a regular basis.
First off - I do like this beer, I'm quite happy to drink it but to my taste it's not a great beer....

Pros: A great taste for a reasonable price. Cons: It only comes in a six pack!
Newcastle Brown Ale is a honey beer, not in the sweet sense but in the richness of both its color and taste. For an ale, which ales are not normally thought to be light, Newcastle affords a light taste that doesn't weigh your mouth down like a Michelob...

Pros: taste, flavor Cons: none
As an old Miller and Pabst Blue Ribbon lover, I can say that the time for imports and microbrews has come.
This beer is so smooth and tasty that I am ashamed to say that I have turned it down in the past. No more, I will give each beer a...

Pros: Sweet flavor, bold taste, presence of body, and no bitter aftertaste Cons: higher price for higher quality
"Got Newcastle?" That is the second question that comes to mind when I walk into an unfamiliar bar. Since I am a 21 year-old male, you can probably figure out what the first question was. Why have I proclaimed this divine beverage the...

Pros: Rich full flavor, not to heavy Cons: none
This is a wonderful, full-flavored brown ale. If you have only had American made brown ales (while some are very good) you have only been drinking imitations of this excellent beer from England. Unlike some of the imitators, this beer is full-tasting,...
