Will never buy either beer again: unless the old one is brought back. I cant believe they did this! I normally never bother with leaving comments, why bother I think, theyll never see this and what is the point?

The Dukes Brown Nose Ale has great malt flavor and easy to drink without the hops bitterness. Thanks again for the feedback and perspective. Where can I buy my old Newcastle??????? I am flabbergasted by your decision to relaunch the Newcastle Brown Ale product. Heck, on a recent day trip had a great ale from a micro in LaBelle, FL. Guess when I get up there Ill have to stock up to fill the spots formally filled with real New Castle Brown Ale. When I had the first taste of the new beer in a restaurant, I told the waiter it must have been a bad bottle so he brought me another and it tasted as bad as the first. Very dissapointed with the new product. IF IT AINT BROKE DONT FIX IT DUMB ASS. Youve probably sales have probably dropped by 75% and lost your customers most loyal to Newcastle. As others posted, I not only wont drink another of these Newcastles, I also wont drink any of the other Lagunitas beers on principle. This relaunch is to Newcastle what New Coke was to Coca Cola!! They should change the name because it in no way resembles the NEWCASTLE we all loved. This new recipe SUCKS!!!!!!!!!!! The makers should be ashamed of themselves for serving this bland liquid as the Famous Newcastle Brown Ale. So, before I committed to a half barrel, I bought a six pack of this stuff. Then I closely read the bottle. If you give one damn about sales youll fix this. Way to turn an old favorite into generic crap. Now I know the full story and am devastated. The new recipe should NOT be called Newcastle Brown Ale at all! I dont like beers with a strong hoppy taste. I hate it!

Production moved from Newcastle to Gateshead at the end of 2004 and to Tadcaster on closure of the Dunston brewery in 2010. Its completely different. Bring back the One and Only. Not anymore!!! This is a slap in the face. Ill be switching to Alaskan Amber now and hoping the original comes back! NOT. Newcastle Brown Ale was originally produced by the Tyne Brewery in Newcastle, but is now brewed by John Smith's in North Yorkshire, UK. I will not purchase this ever again. Anyway, one final comment. How will losing every New Castle drinker help you sell more beer. BRING BACK THE ORIGINAL, PLEEEEEEAAAASE!!!!! Just because you put more hops in doesnt make it better just bitter. A deplorable move!
