Named for the great ship that tragically sunk in Lake Superior in 1975 with many Northeast Ohioans on board, our Edmund Fitzgerald is the dark, brooding type. One sip of this complex, flavorful porter inspires lavish bar napkin poetry and spirited closing-time soliloquies. It’s a meticulously crafted love letter in a bottle, an epic and flavorful voyage, each sip a bittersweet tribute.
Originated in Great Britain and named after the porters who hauled goods from wagons to the stands at open air markets common to England at that time.
From the Brewer – “Bittersweet chocolate-coffee taste and bold hop presence.”
Enjoy with: Barbecued ribs, steaks, oysters, and chocolate.
