Fortnight X-Pat IPA
X-Pat is a fusion of our English heritage and American passions. Using UK malts and American hops this IPA pours copper in color with a big hop bouquet of grapefruit, pine, floral sweetness. A well rounded malt back bone evens out the bitterness for a truly unique drinking experience.

Fortnight ESB
English Ale’s big brother. With a copper color this English specialty is the real deal. With notes of figs and sweet raisins, its countered by a healthy dose of East Kent Golding hops to give it a balance. A quintessential English beer, this Extra Special Bitter has found a new home in the states.

Fortnight Blonde Ale
While this beer is light in color, it’s not lacking in flavor. This easy drinking beer has fruity and floral notes with a clean finish. A healthy dose of wheat malt adds to the complexity you would expect from a blonde.

Best enjoyed at around 50 degrees, and for those English purists, look for this beer being pulled from a cask in the traditional English style.
