Sometimes you feel you need a Morning Jacket to go about your day. For this historical rendition of a Kentucky classic you’ll get rich notes of caramel and toffee along with a creamy body. Brewed the proper way with 6 row Corn and Cluster hops.

After tasting it I probably would have guessed that it was a bock or even a dunkel. My admittedly weak understanding of Kentucky common is that they had a sour element to them which this lacked. That said, it was a beautiful copper-brown malty, toasty ale with adequate bitterness and a sustained head. I liked it enough to have three, foregoing the desire to try a few different beers despite not matching my expectation based on the style.
