Pros: All-around superiority in a wide range of settings
Cons: Premium price for premium product
Newcastle Brown Ale. For those who are familiar with it, the name speaks for itself. Of the hundreds of different beers I have consumed from all over the world, from large breweries to small, Newcastle reigns supreme as my favorite all-around beer for...

Pros: Crisp, refreshing and just darn good
Cons: Just a bit Expensive
This is a wonderful beer. I first tried it on vacation in New Zealand. Disappointed I could not find any singles of Kiwi beers, so following a recommendation from a cousin I picked up two of these. I am quite glad that I did. After a steady diet of...

Pros: great taste
Cons: a little pricey
I like New Castle Brown Ale because it has a taste I find appealing. It doesn't turn your stomach, even though it is an ale. There is nothing I like more than to sit down with a bag of Race Car Fritos and sip on my New Castle. In my experiences with...

Pros: Good tasting and thick.
Cons: Overrated and overpriced
For the year of 2001, Newcastle Brown Ale wins the most popular award. Don't get me wrong, it's a good beer, but it is not the best beer ever, not even close.
If you appreciate dark beers you will like Newcastle's taste, but you will hate the...

Pros: the smooth brown taste
Cons: somewhat expensive, depending where you go
so, over the last weekend, i was at this cheap-crappy bar around the corner from my apartment. i looked for a decent beer and the bartender, who looked like g.w. bailey(of police academy fame), handed me a "new castle brown ale".. wow, i...

Pros: Choc full of grog and smooth down your throat.
Cons: Not cheap.
Picture the scene. An endless fridge filled to the top with different beers from different countries. All icy cold. All calling your name. Where you gonna go first?
Newcastle Brown, baby. Why? Well, let's see if I can stretch the word...

Pros: The Taste
Cons: You Can't always find it in Restaurants
For me, it does not get much better than a nice cold pint of
Newcastle. Especially if I can find it on draft. It is my favorite
brown ale, and I'll tell you why. Necastle has this wonderful almost
honeyish to brownsugar yet a...

Pros: Light, tasty, smooth
Cons: has a shelf life
This is the "scotch" of brown ales. Newcastle Brown Ale has been one of my favorites since the late 70's. I loved it while I was over seas (heck, even locally brewed Budweiser taste good over there) and all my associates and I love it over...

Pros: Beautifully Balanced, Creamy and Full-bodied.
Cons: Everyone Else Needs a Gasmask
When I'm not in the mood to experiment, and I just want to pick up a sixer of brew that I know I'll enjoy, I go for the Newcastle. Smooth, creamy, and packing that full-in-the-mouth feeling, it's one of my favorite beers to simply crack open and savor....

Pros: Everybody should try it once
Cons: Expensive
We'll start with the observation that the British refer to Newcastle Brown Ale as "the dog". As in "walking the dog?", Damn .. I don't know, but it would fit U.S. slang nicely .... "pickin' me up some dog"; "let's get...

Pros: Surprisingly great ale!
Cons: Pricey and hard to find.
The first time I had a Newcastle, the person who bought it for me said, "Taste mine first, its kinda strong." I did, expecting the worst a beer can offer - that strong, dry, bitter taste. I was pleasantly surprised! I fell in love and it...

Pros: larger size standard bottles, bottles not cans, fairly easy to find
Cons: more expensive than most American large brews, higher alcahol content can sneak up on you
I first tried Newcastle Brown Ale about 5 years ago while on a pub crawl. It was love at first taste. Rich full body and subtle nutty flavor that is dark without being motor oil thick like Stouts tend to be.
The falvor goes with most non...

Pros: Drinkability
Cons: Pasturized and filtered to death.
Newkie Brown. A working man’s beer?
Newcastle Brown is a beer popular with the English working classes in the midlands and north east. With a distinctive and relatively sweet flavor, it appeals to folks with a liking for the sweeter things in...

Pros: Overall excellent beer
Cons: Dark color may put some people off
Newcastle has long been one of my favorite beers. It's nutty flavor is inviting and it is extremely smooth. So smooth, in fact, that many of my friends who've tried it were surprised that a brown ale could go down so easy. One interesting fact about...

by agnostic_311 , Dec 20 '00
Pros: SO GOOD! Complex, yet subtle taste that makes it oh so nice.
Cons: A bit expensive. Probably not as appealing to beer afficianados.
Newcastle provides a great means for people that drink crappy Macro-brews to become more familiar with truly good (dare I say fine) beers. There are certainly better beers out there, most of which are much harder to find, but Newcastle is a solid choice...
