This is the big, hearty ’red wine’ of our range. Nine malts are blended to produce layers of caramel, coffee, liquorice, chocolate and roasty flavours and these are balanced by a tart, raisiny fruitiness that gradually gives way to a lingering dry finish. Rich, full bodied. warming and moreish. Stonecutter pairs well with venison, roast beef or lamb, or the heartiest casseroles and stews. For dessert try with a creme brulee or, of course, Scottish shortbread.

Rich dark malts, smoke, and wicked roast. Nice solid bitterness, with some outstanding sweet maltiness, and smoke. The finish is really soft but quite roasty, and as a nice bitter bite. This is an impressive scotch ale!

It's better than the other could be undrinkable beers.

Brown with a frothy beige head. Aroma full of toffee, prunes and raisins. Mild tobacco aroma underneath. Taste is sweet, full of caramel with a mix of roasted bitterness and mild, fruity tartness at the finish. Full bodied with mild to moderate carbonation. My kind of a beer.
