We’ve partnered with our pals at The Scottish Bee Company to create our latest high vault-age sour; Blackberry Raspberry Heather Honey.
200 kilos of award-winning Scottish heather honey from over half a million bees creates a sweet aromatic sensation in this modern sour beer. Bold and juicy fruit makes the perfect pairing for honey sweetness and our sour beer base, creating a perfect balance, and a smooth, viscous mouth feel.

27 March 2023. At Wee Vault, Edinburgh. Shared with the lovely Anke!
A: hazy red, thin, off-white head.
A: artisan honey, forest fruit jam, yoghurt.
T: sour raspberry & blackberry, honey malts, bit lactic.
F: tart berries, honey, yoghurt, wheat.
P: medium body, slick texture, average carbonation.
Balanced all in all, honey was even a bit unnecessary here.

On keg at the Hanging Bat. Appearance - opaque purple. Should that be deep? Thin white head. Nose - mainly honey with black fruit lurking. Taste - blackberry and honey. A bit blackberry crumble. Palate - medium bodied, not a sour really. Sweet and fairly dry on the finish. Overall - good.
