This dark beer has been crafted to evoke the brewing practices of the mid-19th century. Fermented in a 5,000-litre oak vessel for nine months, the beer exhibits a unique balance of light fruitiness and dark intensity. Its deep chocolate aroma and raspberry-like acidity complement the malt backbone and roast malt bitterness. To further enhance its complexity, the beer was blended with some fresh Export Stout, a common practice among Victorian breweries. This results in a mellowed bitterness and a bridge of wild yeast character between the old and young beers.

In 2007, Evin O'Riordain was sent to New York on business and what he tasted in the bars and pubs was, not only to change his life forever, but to prove a pivotal point in the UK beer scene's revival. He spent the next 2 years homebrewing and honing his skills, making big flavoured and challenging beers. In 2009, The Kernel Brewery was born and word slowly spread about this man making fantastic beers under a railway arch in South East London. A move to bigger premises saw them finally be able to meet demand and they are now named in the top 50 Breweries in the world by Rate Beer.
