The Chancer
The Chancer was the first beer O Brother released and remains one of the four year-round beers of the core range. It is a pale ale at 4.6% in which El Dorado hops set the tone: stone fruit runs through both the smell and the taste. The beer is lively and geared towards refreshment, with the fruit of the hops in the foreground.
