Brewed in collaboration with our friends at Newbarns Brewery, we made this take on a traditional Scottish ale using a double/reiterated mash. This 17th century brewing technique utilises the runoff wort from one mash, as the liquor for a second. This effectively concentrates the wort, allowing the production of a very strong beer without requiring additional sugars (though we did also add sugars here). We used a historic inspired recipe utilising Chevallier malt along with heritage crystal and No. 2 invert sugar, ingredients typically used in beers of this calibre since the late 1800’s.

Urk från SB. Trögflytande sirapsfärgad vätska med lågt skum. Söt och med mycket värmande alkohol. Så len och med en precist avvägd punch av alkoholen för att inte bli sliskig. Kryddig och eldig. Eucalyptus, hostmedicin och läkerol original. Mycket gott

Copper colour, mediumsized off-white head. Aroma is floral, some dried fruity tones, and mild spicy tones with a wee bit of alcohol to it. Flavour is quite similar, intense kind of Scotch ale. Lovely brew.
