Inspired by Flanders Reds of old, Goat Witch is our blended sour red ale combining 80% provision strength ‘young’ stock beer aged in steel, with around 20% ‘mature’ stock beer aged in Scottish whisky barrels for upwards of one year. The combination of old and young beers has produced a complex sweet and sour flavour profile with a subtle oak character.
This blended base was refermented on 200g/l locally grown Scottish tayberries from the 2025 harvest. Tayberries are a cross between a raspberry and blackberry, producing a complex combination greater than the sum of its parts.

Nose is tarte red berries, funk, herb, hedgerow.
Taste comprises funk, sharp berries, berry pips, tarte, hay bale.
Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close with a mellow acidic spike.
Tidy.
