Fetchez La Vache 4: Herd Immunity
Barrel-Aged Old Ale 10%
NO LONGER AVAILABLE
Their mother was a hamster and their father smelt of elderberries. Now they’re in town with a few days to kill.
This summer, the bovines won’t be taking a vacation…in space, where no one can hear you scream.
Bigger. Smarter. Faster. Meaner. So many cows, so little time to determine the air-speed velocity of an unladen swallow. Be thirsty. Be very thirsty.
This sipper was aged for 5 months inside our bourbon barrels, giving it time to soak up the flavour, yet still keep it balanced. It’s a dark old ale that will provide warmth and leave your palate lingering with notes of molasses and drying tannins.
