Named after a famous local mountain – Schiehallion (pronounced ‘She-hal-i-on’) presented a huge challenge – creating a Pilsner the Czech would be proud of. Brewed with lager malt and Hersbrücker and Challenger hops. Fermented with a lager yeast.

Bottle. Clear orange with a white head. Low bead. Aroma is mainly lemon, but there’s oranges and a little clove as well. Taste has lots of citrus bitterness upfront, a tiny bit of light caramel, a little wheaty (?) sourness and a spicy bitter finish. Yes, dry and refreshing but not engaging. Unbalanced - the malt side is pretty vacant. Seems ashamed to be a lager. [2.9] Bottle. Very clean but slightly bready malt, lots of lemon and light spices. Refreshing.

Cask @ 3 Judges. Clear golden colour, off-white head. Aroma of flowery hops, some malts Flavour is flowery malts, bready hops. Slightly bitter and dry. Not as good as the bottled version, but still an excellent premium lager.
