Farmers Ales Edward Brights Stout

Commercial Description:

A robust stout brewed for the winter months using chocolate malt to give a rich flavour. Launched at the 2nd Maldon Beer Festival, this beer celebrates Edward Bright, "the fat man of Maldon", who died in 1750, weighing over 44 stones. There was a local wager that seven hundred men would fit into Edward Brigth's waistcoat. The wager was won when seven men from the Dengie Hundred got into the waistcoat.
