Brass Castle - Suffrajitsu

Suffrajitsu was the name given to the style of Jui Jitsu that ‘Suffragette’ activists trained in and practiced, to protect themselves from heavy handed police tactics and counter-demonstrators.

‘Tribute’ was the theme for the 2020 International Women’s Collaboration Brew Day – so here’s their tribute to the origins of International Women’s Day and the suffragists: an 8.0% Baltic Porter. This is a straight complex version of this intriguing lager style. Baltic Porter’s are a sweet, robust dark beer. This one has bags of roastiness, dried dark fruit tones, some smoke, liquorice notes and burnt treacle.
