A classic Scottish heavy, this dark ale is designed for cask. Showcasing a malt-forward flavour profile and low bitterness to emphasise a full-bodied malty finish. Flavours of subtle chocolate, coffee and treacle to finish.

Can from Appellation Wines. Pours clear brown with a thick cream-coloured head. Aromas of toffee and hazelnuts. Taste is more of the same, maybe a hint of treacle. Classic 80 bob. Thin finish though.

On cask at Monty's Bar. Appearance - brown with amber chinks. Off white creamy head. Nose - chewy toffee and light treacle with prominent hazelnuts. Taste - more chewy toffee and hazelnuts. Palate - medium bodied, creamy and sweet middle and finish. Overall - great example of the style.
