(Setting it up for the "what shores?" feed line)
the elevated abv and Old Ale sound up my alley, but
I lacked security to get to
https://taproom.nonsuch.beer/menu_all/1615405847289x366149903958933500
(tries another browser) - oh, full of scripty badness.
Ah $8 a throw, and sour, peach, etc means it's all a bit too crafty for
what I think of as BEER.
