Looking forward to drinking this in celebration of @kernelbrewery.bsky.social 16th birthday!
In honour of our 16th Birthday we delved deep into the Barclay Perkins Archives to find a recipe from the 18th Century.
Brown Stout - London 1812
You can read more about this new beer here: tinyurl.com/4reytpnc
