Harpoon Old Ale is inspired by the sustaining winter offerings of many English breweries. This complex & malty brew is marked by significant alcohol warmth, balanced bitterness, biscuit/roasted undertones, and sublime mouthfeel. Proper English yeast, traditional hop varietals, and generous malt bill create a wonderful companion for the fireside. Enjoyable for consumption now or for extended cellaring.
Cheers!

"An amber appearance with a beige head. A very malty aroma with some caramel and pancake syrup. The flavor is similar to what you would expect from the aroma, caramel, molasses, and candy sugar. A very cloying beer. The flavor was ok but I hard time with the sweetness of this beer. Overall it was ok.
