Privy Murder Brown Ale

English Brown Ale, rich, malt-forward ale with caramel and nutty flavors and a deep reddish-brown color. Hopped with British Fuggle

One evening, a bartender at a local saloon deemed that one of his patrons had overindulged. He cut him off, causing the man to leave the building in a huff. A short time later, another customer stepped outside to use the privy and failed to reappear. A brief search found him stabbed to death in the outhouse. In a classic case of wrong place/wrong time, this customer bore a resemblance to the bartender and was wearing a shirt of the same color.  The offended lumberjack had waited out back for the “bartender” to come out, followed him into the privy, did his dastardly business, and left town. Our Privy Murder English Brown Ale is a rich, malt-forward ale with caramel and nutty flavors and a deep reddish-brown color and hopped with traditional British Fuggle hops provide a very mild bitterness.
