Malted barley is a vital part of the Scottish brewing tradition. We use three different varieties to create the deep colour and smooth nuttiness; each grain is milled right here in our brewery, giving us complete control over flavour and freshness.
Then we balance this rich brew with just the right amount of Challenger and Fugle hops.
Hops: Challenger, Fuggle, Pioneer
Malts: Pale Ale, Crystal, Roast

(Bottle 50 cl) Beautiful, clear, dark amber with a creamy, off-white head leaving some lacework. Malty, roasted aroma. Rather dry and malty with a wee touch of smoke. Dry finish without any real bitterness. 051105

Week aroma, but nice brown colour, no head, but the flavour is OK with long finish. It is a very bitter ale.

An amber beer with no head. The aroma is sweet with primary notes of caramel. The flavor is dry hoppy combined with notes of caramel, while the body is thin.

Sampled cask conditioned at Blackfriars in Inverness. Reddish amber. Light body and light hoppy flavour and a hint of grapefruit. Sparkling mouthfeel. Lightly bitter finish. A well drinkable cask ale.
