This “common” is anything but common! Based heavily on the Kentucky Common Ale, a near-extinct style primarily made between the end of the Civil War and the beginning of Prohibition in and around Louisville, this unique beer has quickly become one of our most popular brews. Sweet, earthy, and drinkable in all the right ways, you won’t want to miss this on its own or with a hot, wood-fired pizza -- especially the Communication Breakdown.

Based on the Kentucky Common Ale style. Pours a dark cream color with a minimal tan head that disappears quickly. No discernable aroma. Taste is sweet and slightly hoppy. Very drinkable.
