Crafted to resemble a 1920 version of a Scottish 90 shilling. This style originated in 19th century Scotland when the tax per barrel was determined by the alcohol content of the beer. Scottish Golden Promise blends with caramel and chocolate malt flavors, and earthy UK hop notes for a quaffable malty ale.

Murky brown with a large white head that left good lacing. Toasty malt, wood, light astringency and faint coffee. Medium length finish. Moderately full bodied.
