90 Shilling is our smooth and complex flagship beer. A medium-bodied amber ale with a distinct burnished copper color and a deeply pleasant aroma. The name 90 Shilling comes from the Scottish method of taxing beer. Only the highest quality beers were taxed 90 Shillings. We think you’ll find this original ale brilliantly refreshing, and worth every Shilling.

Had at some bar a couple mile bike ride from New Belgium Brewing. I think it was called Standards oh something. Anyways I was very hungover from hanging with New Belgium folks and thought this would be easiest way to ease back into drinking world. Pours a standard amber color, tastes of malt, slightly sweet, toffee, and some wood. pretty standard.

Bottle from Utobeer. Very decent ESB. I mean its got a mid chestnut colour, thin lasting beige head, aroma of malt and some american hop (so not a Scottish Ale, since when were American hops grown in Scotland), good solid malts in the mouth and then a slightly hoppy juicy finish. It’s a decent ESB. Not a Scottish Ale. At all. Enjoyable.
