Description
Two Towns Down is a brewing project founded by Sandy McKelvie.

Sandy started his brewing career in the Isle of Man before returning to his native Scotland to complete the Brewing and Distilling Degree at Heriot Watt University. In his third year he was also the in-house brewer at the Hanging Bat which included collabs with the likes of Six Degrees North.

Once the four year course was complete he took a brewing position at Fallen Brewing Co. before moving on to head up recipe development and barrel aging at Black Isle Brewing Co. Having recently relocated to 71 Brewing in Dundee, Sandy has taken the opportunity to launch his own project, showcasing innovative and cutting edge beers while still drawing inspiration from classic brewing philosophies.

Can from Appellation Wines. Appearance - dark brown almost opaque, apart from a few orange chinks around the bottom. Cream to tan head. Nose - biscuit and nougat. Taste - Toblerone. Milk chocolate, hazelnuts and nougat again. Palate - medium bodied, dry but elegant roastiness through middle and finish. Overall - this is very well made.

440ml Can @ monthly tasting, Chez Sophie October '20 just prior to Lockdown 2.0. Thanks Ashtonccobb for this. Last beer of the night. Pours dark, hazed, off-white head. Great black IPA overall, not heavy on the dark malts but plenty of sweet swirls. Very nice.

Monday 2nd Nov 2020: Monthly Beer Share at Chez Sophie, Shrewsbury. Four hardy souls and plenty of variety, some good snacks too! A gift from AshtonMcCobb's, cheers friend. 440ml can given to minutemat, who shared it with us. Misty brown body, off-white topping. Strange malty brew really, lots going on, but in different directions!

Can from Appellation Wines - cheers Ash! Pour hazy brown with a thin off-white head. Aromas of light roast, marmalade, light tropical fruit. Taste is more of the same. Could be darker for the style, but nice.
