Smash the Pastryarchy

We auctioned off Anders for charity a while ago, for Swedish national radio P3’s “Musikhjälpen” initiative. The winning bunch of friends wanted to brew something traditional. They were tired of modern beers – a.k.a “pastry beers”- adding buns, vanilla cream, coffee beans soaked in chocolate, raspberry doughnuts and other items to the recipe. Jump they say, “how high?” we ask and ripped out a 200 year old British imperial stout. Simple as that. Strong, full bodied and packs a great punch. What’s not to like with British tradition?
