One of our mates (and friendly CAMRA liaison officer) Lee does some great work raising cash for kids with cancer through a charity called CLIC Sargent… so when he asked if we wanted to do a charity brew we were of course all in. A Worthy Cause has a Pilsner malt base with crystal, Vienna, wheat and malt sourced from Isle of Arran Distillery. Hops are Challenger, Herkules, Northern Brewer and Wakatu. Late addition of fresh Spruce tips. Brewed to pair with Isle of Arran 10 Year Old.

Tap at Counting House. Slightly hazy amber beer with a white bubbly head. Aroma is fruity and spicy. I couldn’t have told you what the flavour of the spruce was but it’s quite distinct. It also, for me, renders the beer a sipper but it’s nice.
