Sensory Description:
This hybrid brown ale pours deep mahogany with a rich, creamy head. It opens with a decadent bouquet of toffee, milk chocolate, roasted nuts, and subtle hints of coffee. On the palate, layers of caramelized malt sweetness unfold alongside a balancing backbone of noble and American hop bitterness, delivering notes of earthy spice, cocoa powder, and toasted grain. The finish is smooth, slightly dry, and wonderfully balanced, inviting sip after sip.

Brewer's Background:
Founded in 2011 by brewmaster Fish Weemhoff and partner Tommy Thacher, Telluride Brewing Co. is the product of friendship, shared passion, and mountain-town spirit. What began as late-night conversations between a bartender and a brewer became one of Colorado's most celebrated breweries. Brewing with pristine Rocky Mountain snowmelt, high-quality malts, and carefully selected hops, Telluride Brewing Co. has earned numerous accolades for its bold, balanced, and highly drinkable beers — with Face Down Brown at the center of its award-winning legacy.
Serving Suggestions:
Serve chilled at 6–8°C in a nonic pint or tulip glass to fully appreciate its layered aromas and rich malt character. Ideal pairings include grilled bratwurst, smoked ribs, beef stew, aged cheddar, or dark chocolate desserts. Its balance of malt sweetness and hop bitterness also complements roasted poultry and hearty vegetarian fare.
The Telluride Brewing Co. 'Face Down' Brown Ale Beer stands as a true champion of the style, blending craftsmanship, creativity, and mountain-town soul into every pint.
