Notes

Archibald "Archy" Armstrong was the court jester to James VI in the 1600s and is regarded as one of the most famous English court jesters.

This beer is an English pale ale made from Jester hops. The ABV is low, only slightly bittered and has lots of hops without being overpowering. It is a great summer session beer.

Pre-boil Brix 8.5
Post-boil Brix 10.2
