An English thoroughbred and a favored choice of malt for many brewers. Simpsons' Maris Otter has a rich and nutty flavor and despite its small, berry size has a strong husk.

The hop on this one will knock your socks off!

This is based on historical recipes for original IPAs. Totally overhopped but allowed to age 6 months in the bottle before sampling, it was great then but continues to mellow and get more complex with time. An expensive brew to make, but well worth it!
