Spey Stout is the beer for which a brewery was built! It was named before Spey Valley Brewery even existed, and the aim of the brewery from day one – to produce a world class dark beer, which even light beer fans could enjoy.
Full bodied and smooth with the rich aroma and robust flavours of liquorice and chocolate, Spey Stout has had great reviews from stout fans and its clean, well balanced flavours have been known to convert a number of light beer fans to the dark side!
Malts: Maris otter, Wheat, Crystal, Chocolate.
Hops: Northern Brewer, Lubelski.

Cask @ Mash Tun, Aberlour [180513]
Black, ruby edges, yellowish creamy dense head
Aroma of rich dark sweet toffee, soft roasted malts, some wholemeal brown bread
Taste of dark sweet fruity malts, soft dark chocolate, touch of light coffee, some liquorice, mocha notes, very soft roast, dab of hedgerow fruits, very slightly vinous, really good flavour
Palate - Medium body, very smooth, quite sweet dark rich toffee malt palate. Finish as main flavour, very smooth
Overall - This is super well made stout - very good aroma and flavour and really smooth. It’s the best beer out of Moray I’ve tried so far.......yes it gets a 4 too
