Midnight Sun
Jet-black porter, sweet and spicy: coffee, biscuit, caramel and toasted malt on the nose, then roast malt, chocolate, honey and an after bite of fresh root ginger. The malt is balanced by a generous helping of hops. Malted barley, oats, roast barley and chocolate malt. Local cattle get the spent grain and, the brewery says, love it. In 2010 it won Gold as bottled porter, mild or stout at the SIBA Scotland awards.
