Commercial Description:
An American interpretation of a British classic. Originally crafted to make the long sailing voyage from England to India in wooden casks, this ale was higher in alcohol and more assertively hopped than other styles of ale made in the 19th century. Our version utilizes American hop varieties for an intense hop flavor and aroma.

Good stuff, their best offering. Poured a nice orange with no head. Aroma is fresh hops. Flavor also fresh citrus hops with a bit of sweetness, just enough.

on tap-pours an offwhite head that laces with copper color. Aroma is medium hops, sweet. Taste is good medium hops with a bite, medium malt, bitter finish. Good carbonation.
