Lettuce 'Brown Goldring' has tight upright heads with green leaves tipped with bronze. This romaine (cos) style lettuce is crunchy and the boat-shaped leaves are good for dipping or filling. Very cold-tolerant. This British heirloom won an award of merit in 1923 from the Royal Horticultural Society. Introduced by the Goldring family of Bath, England. Also known as Crispy-Crunch Green-Gold.
 
Contrary to what others say about Brown Goldring, I found the flavor of a bit bitter compared varieties such as Bronze Arrow or Blushed Butter Oak. Two of my sweetest lettuces.
