The return of a Black Isle favourite, named after our loyal brewery terrier and top sales dog for over 17 years. After a lifetime of unswervingly loyal companionship attending festivals, bars, events and shows, we wanted to commemorate his huge canine contribution by brewing an annual Christmas strong Scotch Ale - small in stature but great in character.

330ml bottle @ Admiral Benbow, Shrewsbury shared with Ewan. Pours a very dark amber, off-white head. Strong aroma of bourbon whisky, continuing to taste with hints of almond and butterscotch. A noticeably lighter wee heavy body compared to, say, a bourbon BA porter, gentle amber malts. Good clobber.
