English pub ale meets the French farmhouse tradition and American oak aging in this dry, drinkable farmhouse mild ale. Full-flavored, but brewed with enough restraint to be highly sessionable. Unfiltered, unpasteurized, and naturally conditioned.

Admin Note: In December 2013 Jester King began brewing this beer using indigenous wild yeast and souring bacteria. Bottles released from Batch 6 through 2021 should be rated under the Farmhouse entry. In 2022, Jester King returned to the original version of Commercial Suicide brewed with traditional English yeast and started canning.

From tap at Oersoep Craft Beer Festival, Nijmegen. Batch #8 with an ABV of 2.9%. Aroma of bready malt, oak, caramel, balsamic vinegar. Flavour is moderate to medium sour. Okay beer, not really a fan. A bit thin and flat.

Tap at Dig the Line. Dark brown with just a bit of place. Nutty, grassy nose caramel and bready malts. Very dry finish. Somewhat grassy, hay-like Jester King touch. Interesting.
