Firebird Brewery - Old Ale XXXX 4.5%

This is our take on what’s become a Sussex Winter tradition ever since the now passed King and Barnes first brewed it three generations ago. Brewed with a unique range of malts, including roasted carafa, and primed with a small amount of molasses, this is a dark winter beer full of warmth and character. Slightly sweet with hints of roasted chocolate, it has a smooth mouth feel and a lingering but subtle bitterness. Great on its own but will accompany smoked or strong cheese or smoked fish.
