Muckle means big and this is one mighty IPA. Breathe in the hops like you'd breathe in the fresh Orkney air! We put a lot of hops in Muckle but there's a pervading sweetness as well - it's a balanced IPA. Unfiltered, unfined and unpasteurised to ensure you get the full flavour. May pour hazy.

On tap. Pours amber with light head. Aromas of melons, caramel, grapefruit and doughy malts. Flavors follow same but more emphasis on tropical fruit. Simple and very good.

(Keg at William K Kurvi, 20180626) The beer poured deep amber and clear. Its head was medium sized and white. Aroma had malts, toffee and cardboard. Palate was medium bodied with medium carbonation. Flavours were earth, caramel, malts and bitterness. Aftertaste was malty and bitter. A bit weird hoppy brew. The aroma wasn't pleasant.
