Scottish Breakfast Ale /80
Scottish Export 80/- • All Grain • 5.5 gal
This wee beastie has proven out to the acclaim of several. A pleasant maltiness of grains & oak, with a heavy application of Oats to balance it out, rather than relying entirely on hops. Produces a repsectable head that descending into eye-pleasing lacing. It's hard to tell if the head disappears altogether - the glass doesn't last that long! Cheers!

Oak Wood Chips
Adds a pungent woody flavor. Adding oak chips (which is done in the fermenter, not the mash tun) can add some interesting flavors to your homebrew as well as acting as a surface area to accelerate aging. To provide aged-in-oak flavor. Used in some IPA to simulate flavors from ocean passage to India.

Danstar Nottingham
Danstar Nottingham
The Nottingham strain was selected for its highly flocculant & relatively full attenuation properties. It produces low concentrations of fruity and estery aromas and has been described as neutral for ale yeast, allowing the full natural flavor of malt & hops to develop. The recommended fermentation temperature range of this strain is 14° to 21°C (57° to 70°F) with good tolerance to low fermentation temperatures (12°C/54°F) that allow this strain to be used in lager-style beer. With a relatively high alcohol tolerance, Nottingham is a great choice for creation of higher-alcohol specialty beers!
