How can we tell the difference, or did I just miss it on the lable?

What ever it was last night it was good, had a little sour note in it.

[Reviled]

Im guessing one will be brown and the other pale? :oP lol

[Ally Mcg]

Thats the idea Rev.

The APA is pale and the Brown is Brown.

Hopefully you could tell the difference Simon

[Reviled]

Im hoping I get an APA personally ;o)

[Dale]

I'm just hoping to get some beers full stop.... :-)

[MrC]

Me too. I'm getting pretty thirsty...

[vdog]

Ditto to all three of you. Thirsty, and would like an APA... Rev, hook a brother up!

[Reviled]

lol, my lot were posted yesterday so any time now.... Hopefully :oP

[James P]

And here I was thinking that the Brown was more Tan.... :)

I'm going to have to start drinking my own beers soon if we don't get the CS beers.... oh hang on I have been....

[Ally Mcg]

I've been reduced to drinking my beer as well. Consequently I'm out of home stocks of the Brown.

(Chesnutt Tan doesn't have quite the same ring sorry Jimmy)

[Simon David kelly]

You're all lucky to have some of your own ... I have a couple of really old RIS's which have no carbonation ...

I do have everyone's SC beers which are looking mighty tasty :o)

[Simon David kelly]

You'd think I could wouldn't you :o) ... It was the brown I had in that case.
