Description
The only microbrewery in picturesque Northumberland County, Church-Key features a variety of award-winning hand-crafted ales including our flagship Northumberland Ale and the multi award-winning Holy Smoke Scotch Ale. All of our ales are made in small batches from four ingredients: malted barley, hops, water, and yeast. Within these traditions, each Church-Key product has distinct properties of color, richness, and aroma that make it unique.

Sample at the Badge-Whore Bowl (OSU vs AL) tasting on 01/01/2015. The beer is cola-colored with a medium thin off-white head that recedes gradually. Small patches of lacing. Aroma of smoked malt and chocolate. Medium body with flavors of peat malt, dark chocolate and earthy hops. The finish is smoky with a peaty malt aftertaste. Decent overall.
