Alexandria’s two Scottish founders, Captains Philip and John Alexander, inspired Port City’s our Tartan Ale. Tartan Ale is produced in the Scottish 80-shilling style, which favors complex malt character over hops, which don’t grow in Scotland. It pours a dark copper to chestnut and serves as a showcase for British malt character, including a subtle fruitiness and notes of brown bread and toffee.
