I'm listing brown ales of both the dark brown style and the northern light brown style, dark milds, some of the darker Scotch ales and some 'old' and 'strong' ales which happen to be dark. I'm assembling this list from another that I happen to have and including anything described as dark, so a lot of these probably shouldn't be here. Eventually I'll try to test them all! No doubt I've omitted LOTS that ought to be listed: let me know if you find a brown, a dark mild, or some other dark non-stout that isn't in the list. So far this only approaches completeness for British beers. The rest of the world is yet to come.....
