****PORTERS AND STOUTS****
Porter is said to have been popular with transportation workers of Central London, hence the name. Most traditional British brewing documentation from the 1700’s state that Porter was a blend of three different styles: an old ale (stale or soured), a new ale (brown or pale ale) and a weak one (mild ale). These dark beers are surprisingly smooth for such a heavy and complex taste.
The main difference with Stouts is the roasted barley which lends a unique flavor to the beer. There are many different kinds, including Imperial, Oatmeal, and Irish; all with their own unique characteristics. Don’t be afraid to get more than one and compare.

****INDIA PALE ALES****
When English settlers went looking for the Indies, they needed to preserve their beer for the long voyage. This meant the addition of a massive amount of hops imparting that bitter flavor and cold, crisp finish. Even though we don’t need as much hops for preservation, the beer tasty enough to stick around. This is the style that Hop-heads dream about.

These light crisp beers are perfect for the Summer. Notes of coriander, banana, and cloves take the edge for a delicious flavor. There is much debate as to the addition of a lemon or orange wedge to the brew. Some feel it enhances the flavor…while others find it an insult to the brewer’s creation. It’s your decision, we won’t judge.

The first style of beer ever made. Top fermenting Yeast is what separates this from the Lager (which uses bottom fermenting Yeast). These beers are clean and hoppy but differ from region to region. You will note subtle differences between the English Ale and the American Ale.

****INDIA PALE ALES****
When English settlers went looking for the Indies, they needed to preserve their beer for the long voyage. This meant the addition of a massive amount of hops imparting that bitter flavor and cold, crisp finish. Even though we don’t need as much hops for preservation, the beer tasty enough to stick around. This is the style that Hop-heads dream about.

****WHEAT BEERS****
These light crisp beers are perfect for the Summer. Notes of coriander, banana, and cloves take the edge for a delicious flavor. There is much debate as to the addition of a lemon or orange wedge to the brew. Some feel it enhances the flavor…while others find it an insult to the brewer’s creation. It’s your decision, we won’t judge.

Don’t let the name fool you, this is very much a beer; in fact, it’s quite a strong and intense beer at that. Very high in alcohol, the flavors can vary greatly from beer to beer.

Definitely more of a sipping beer, we recommend this
one to go along with your steak.
