180 Shilling Ale

Описание

Scottish Barleywine. Brewed in collaboration with our friends at Newbarns, 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 the use of 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.
