The Ales of Laxton Hollow

"Fill your flagons before the beery beggars quaff the lot!"
A rich, semi-dry porter featuring two kinds of chocolate malt, as well as final touch of black malt and Northumberland caramel malts. Roasted, chocolate and toffee notes are followed by a hint of smokiness and the rounded, slightly fruity bitterness of Challenger hops, providing a porter that is as easy to drink as it is flavorful. We age this beer longer than usual for the full development of its intended smoothness and complexity.
ABV: 5.7% IBU: 34

Medium-bodied with a brilliant copper color and smooth caramel undertone, this ale features traditional floor-malted barley and crystal malts from the UK, and a generous yet balanced helping of Target, Hersbrucker and Styrian Celeia hops.
