Style: Pale Hoppy Lager
Harviestoun Brewery, Clackmannanshire, United Kingdom
Schiehallion is a crisp cask conditioned lager with a beautifully fresh taste of grapefruit.Delicately crafted using Hersbrucker lager hops, it is warm fermented with lager yeast. Schiehallion is one of Scotland’s best known and most popular mountains. Shrouded in cool, refreshing , misty swirls of early morning air, it is the inspiration of this magnificent beer.
"Pale straw / gold colour, not as pale as some pilsner type beers, and no great carbonation, though a decent enough head when served from the cask. Aroma hints at both hops and a slight flowery sweetness, which is reflected in the taste. Good body for this type of beer,full flavour which leanstowards the sweeter side, but dryish finish which makes it easy to enjoy and drink. An excellent ‘lager’style beer from a UK micro, if only all lager produced in UK could taste as pleasant as this!”
