Scottish 69-/
This is by far the most flavorful 3% abv beer I've made. Definitely my favorite session beer.

| Tasting: | Really can't see anything to change. Some people like peated malt flavor in their Scottish ales, but I find it too intense and instead count on the yeast to provide the subtle smokiness - WY1728. This is a great beer to quaff a few pints and have no lingering effects. | |||||||
