In order to survive in the 14th century one needed to be a force to be reckoned with. In Brittany, Spain and France this knight proved his mettle in battle. This tart blueberry ale was brewed in one of our 3,000 gallon foeders in his honour.

Aroma is tart with sour berry juice. Also earthiness and sweet fruit juice notes. Flavour is rather tart with lactic tones, sour berry juice and earthy notes. Too milky.
