264/4745) Home:  County Ale by Wellington Brewery of Ontario:  ****; 5%, 24 ibu English style brown ale; “may contain wheat”; originally County Brown Ale from 1985; mahogany; malty, nutty aromas; tastes of  toasted malts, nutty, hint of caramel; a great take on a classic style; 

This is a great mix pack – I would buy it again. 

265/4746) Home:  Black Knight Classic Porter by Wellington Brewery of Ontario:  ***1/2; 4.5%, 29 ibu English Porter with oats; dark with a pale head; nose of roasted malts; dark roasted malts, hint of chcolate towards finish;

A revival of a beer from the early 1990s.  Wellington also had Iron Duke Porter, mind this was 5.7%;.  That one was discontinued early in the current century, shortly after I had come across it at an event called the Ale Trail.
