Bodhi Brown Ale
American Brown Ale
Despite the familiar name, Bodhi Brown Ale has nothing to do with the famous IPA from Georgetown Brewing. Well, almost nothing. This beer is named after Jon’s enormous Chocolate Lab, Bodhizafa. And yes, he is named after that famous IPA from Georgetown Brewing.
Bodhi Brown Ale is an American Style Brown Ale. At an estimated ABV of 5.7% it is on the stronger side for this style. It has a smooth malt character with a caramel and chocolate blend that dominates over the subtle toffee and toasty notes beneath. At 21 IBU there is just enough hop bitterness to add some balance, but not enough to steal the stage from the malty sweetness. American hops are used for both bittering and aroma. Lastly, a clean American style yeast is used to complete the American Brown Ale character of the beer.
