Description
Meet the beast that rules the gridiron and the glass: Monster of the Midway Brown Ale, a smooth yet powerful brew crafted right here at California Wild Ales in Ocean Beach, San Diego. Clocking in at 5.4% ABV, this brown ale is built for flavor, sessionability, and pure coastal comfort.
From the first pour, Monster of the Midway reveals a deep, chestnut-brown body with a light caramel sheen—an invitation to dive deeper. Aromas of toasted malt, warm cocoa, roasted nuts, and a touch of brown sugar rise from the glass, evoking memories of fall nights, football season, and the comforting calm of OB sunsets.
On the palate, this beast is all balance. Smooth waves of caramel malt, biscuit, and light chocolate develop into a rounded finish with just enough hop bitterness to keep things clean and crisp. Not too heavy, not too sweet—just a rich, full-flavored brown ale that goes down easy and pairs effortlessly with everything from burgers and wings to dessert or beachside snacks.
Brewed for locals, football fans, and adventurous drinkers, Monster of the Midway is the perfect beer to enjoy during the big game, a neighborhood hangout, or a chill night on Newport Ave. Whether you’re cheering on the Bears or just want a reliable, flavorful pint, this brown ale brings the roar without overwhelming the palate.
Swing by our Ocean Beach tasting room to try it fresh on draft, or grab cans to-go and unleash the Midway monster wherever your adventures take you.
