Our Old Engine Oil works in many formats but we thought it would be good at a lower ABV in cask. We were pleased with this beer and so decided to do a keg version at lower ABV too. We decided to use mixed gas to produce a smother finish to the beer and not let the roast barley become harsh. This has worked well and we are very pleased to be able to add this beer to the range.

Keg at Cooks of Stirling. It pours jet black with a sturdy, long last light tan head. The aroma is earthy roast, ashy, coffee grounds, toasted nut and cacao nibs The taste is initially smooth, then dry, rich roasted malt, ashy, umami, salted liquorice, burnt coffee, inky and some peppery spice with a dinky dry finish. Medium body and moderate, tight foamy carbonation. Lacks a bit of depth perhaps, but works as nice alternative to Guinness.
