I am named after a medieval Scottish sword, and am a tribute to the traditional Wee Heavy beer style that originated from Scotland. My malty, deep-ruby pour features a bold mouthfeel with lots of caramel sweetness, a reserved hop profile, and a subtle warming character – exactly how a Scotch Ale should be. Unlike my namesake, you only require one hand to hold me, but I will still make you feel like nobility!
