Exhibit 'A,' a brewery and taproom based in the city of Framingham in Massachusetts, has launched a full-flavored scotch ale that is designed to appeal to beer drinkers who enjoy a hint of booziness to their brew, not to mention a veritably complex flavor profile and the unmistakable punch of an above-average alcohol percentage.
Dubbed 'We're Going To Need You To Come In On Saturday,' this scotch ale takes its name from the iconic dialogue uttered by Bill Lumbergh in the famous 1999 film Office Space. While Lumbergh was a decidedly annoying character, there's certainly nothing off-putting about this beer, which offers notes of toffee and biscuit and an unabashedly malty touch.
Made with peat-smoked malt from Massachusetts-based Valley Malt, this brew offers a smoky, sweet and complex drinking experience.
