Pitched yeast slurry from Scottish Ale. Fermented separately.


Packaging Notes
Carbonated to 2.5 volumes. Late extract addition batch labeled A, ther other - B.

Great Chinook aroma. The taste has a bit of bite from the rye highlighted by the hops. Hard to tell a difference between A and B though. Good lasting head.
