Old Peculiar Strong Ale

Post by schomberger »

What happened to Granite Brewery Old Peculiar strong ale? It was available in some beer stores in six pack bottles until about a year or so ago. This was a flavourful English style brew that I quite enjoyed during the colder months. I found the malt/hops to be more balanced than the widely available Wellington Iron Duke strong ale, which I find too sweet. Unfortunately, Fuller's 1845 seems to have disappeared as well. Headstrong is a tastey option though it has more of a hybrid (English/American) flavour than Old Peculiar.
