A Strong Scotch Ale. This is a very full bodied, dark, rich brew with a sweet malt character of much depth possessing the flavours of toffee, plums and currants. The hop varietal used in such small amount is English First Gold and can be barely discerned. The target gravity for this brew is 20 degrees plato and hop bitterness of just 14 IBU’s.

Generous pour from a growler courtesy of maltdawg. Thanks Graham! Pours a very dark reddish brown color with a medium head. Good head retention and lacing. Aroma is toffeish malts with some earthy notes. Taste is caramel, toffee and earthy notes with very faint hops and light booze. Full bodied.
