Product Description

Olde Luddy is a tawny, malty strong ale in the English tradition. “Old ales” like this one are part of many English brewer's portfolios, often as a wintertime or holiday specialty. If you like English ESBs or barley wines, you'll love this strong ale, situated midway between the two with some of the characteristics of each: warming, rich, dark in color and full on the palate, showing an herbal/flowery nose from late hopping with English varieties. With its hefty, malty body and flavors of chocolate, toffee, dried figs, and floral hops, a beer like Olde Luddite keeps the cold and damp at bay whether you're in Bristol or Bemidji. Recommended: 2-stage fermentation and yeast starter.
