This malty beer hearkens back to historic Scottish ale creation, where beer styles were named based on price (40 shilling, 60 shilling, 80 shilling, etc) as a gauge of alcohol strength. While most US brewers brew the stronger Wee Heavy, this Scottish 80 Shilling is the more casual drink, giving a malt-forward flavor with a hint of smoke that finishes very smooth.
