Vitellius

Crafted with German malted barley, specialty German malt, Hallertau Mittelfrüh hops, and our house kölsch yeast blend. Step-mashed, naturally carbonated, and lagered for six weeks. Notes of honey, spice, candied lemon peel, breadcrust, and caramel. It is named after Vitellius (15 – 69 CE), who was a Roman emperor during the year of the four emperors, which was a period of civil war during the Roman empire. During his short reign, Vitellius was known for his gluttony, and a recipe for stewed peas, known as Vitellian peas, has survived to this day!   Show Less
