Whilst we’re very much a tropical and fruit forward pale and hoppy brewery by trade, we do occasionally brew to the seasons here at Polly’s HQ. With it being the peak of winter, we’re yearning for something simple, to be enjoyed in front of a roaring fire in a pub with mates. Step in the aptly named Jumper Season.
Taking influence from the Irish pubs we’ve independently all experienced and collectively loved, the quota on this beer was to create a purposely full bodied Irish stout; letting the malt and the malt alone do the talking on this beer. Going off the beaten track with Maris Otter malt, we’ve backed this up with roasted barley and flaked barley to create a velvety smooth, decadent stout that isn’t extreme on the strength. Perfect for this time of year.

I ditched my jumper today due to the unseasonably warm March weather. This stout isn't quite full enough to be a seasonal warmer, but it's steady, with smoothish roasted available in both aroma and taste and a blast of chocolate to compliment.
