MORE CASK!! + WE ARE HIRING
Fox Farm: Barmy
We are now pulling pints of Burton Ale (6.2%). Perfect timing with the break from the heat as this one is a bit hardy and pairs very well with the cozy gloom out yonder. This cask is only a pin, so it’s guaranteed not to last past Friday.
What is Burton Ale? We had to look it up ourselves. Here’s some info from the folks at Fox Farm:
“While the popularity of Burton Ales waned in the mid-20th century, for at least 100 years prior it was one of Britain’s most well-known and widely exported styles, central to Burton-on-Trent’s legacy as a great brewing city. Generally, they were strong, keeping ales with malt depth balanced by firm bitterness. Our take on the style draws inspiration from a range of historical brewing records but leans most heavily on those from the turn of the century - it blends Fawcett’s Maris Otter and Halcyon base malts with their Amber and Dark Crystal I. True to the period, flavorful Invert Sugar #2 was employed in the boil alongside whole leaf and pellet additions of Fuggle and East Kent Golding hops.
Barmy, a Burton Ale made in collaboration with Thomas Fawcett & Sons in West Yorkshire, UK. As long as we’ve been brewing, we’ve been working with Fawcett’s malt - their floor-malted Maris Otter and distinctive specialty malts lie at the very heart of many of our beers. When Mungo Fawcett, the 8th-generation leader of the 200-year-old company, visited our brewery last fall, we were honored to share our own story - and honored more still by the opportunity to make a beer together to be served by Country Malt Group at the forthcoming Craft Brewers Conference.”
