Before the Mast

Aboard the masted ships of old, common sailors were known to have served ‘before the mast’. The phrase referred literally to the location of men during the days of sail, whose living quarters on board were in the forecastle, towards the bow. This oatmeal stout is an ode to those who face the elements, yearning for the warm embrace of a rich libation. Before The Mast features a very dark appearance, a light nutty aroma, and a full-bodied and roasty flavor. Avast! And take some time out of your day to take a sip of our latest stout…Because it is, after all, STOUT SZN!
