Certain times demand lager. More salubrious goings-on require something with more pomp.

Bust out the hoity-toity glassware friends! Pomp & Circumstance Baltic Porter (8.9%) is specially crafted to accompany all the finer moments that one gets to enjoy in life.

Brewed with lager yeast as is the norm for this style, Pomp & Circumstance is smooth and rich. It has a toasty malt complexity with notes of caramel, toffee and dried fruit, with hints of chocolate, dark berries and molasses.

This right royal style – one Catherine the Great is said to have enjoyed – is perfect for slow sipping while grandly surveying your own glorious postage stamp-sized empire of one.

Huzzah!
