NEW BEER ALERT!
We just dropped a very limited, taproom release English Nut Brown Ale.
Its a classic, malt-forward English beer that originated in 17th-century London and is known for its deep color and caramel notes achieved through dark malts, not nuts
Dan`s done it again (hit it out of the park) so get your butts in here and enjoy a pint before its gone.
