£33.99
Islay Ales is the only brewery on the beautiful Isle of Islay, off the West Coast of Scotland.
Islay Ales is about producing hand crafted, high quality cask and bottle conditioned beers to be enjoyed either in a local pub or hotel bar or, should the mood take you, at home.
This mixed taster case lets you sample the Islay Ales range. Including* Ardnave Ale, Single Malt Ale, Saligo Ale, Nerabus Ale, Dun Hogs Head Ale, Finlaggan Ale, Angus Og Ale, Kildalton Ale and Black Rock Ale.
Finlaggan Ale 3.7% ABV
Finlaggan Ale is brewed with pale and crystal malts, giving the beer a mid brown colour. The use of Golding as the bittering hop gives the beer a gentle, rounded bitterness, while Mount Hood and Styrian Goldings hops added towards the end of the boil provides the beer with a fresh, fruity and hoppy flavour.
Black Rock Ale 4.2% ABV
The use of pale and crystal malts and un-malted roasted barley gives a darker, reddish brown hue and adds a softer, nuttier flavour to Black Rock. It also has a full body. Golding is used as the bittering hop. Late hopping with Fuggle and Mount Hood gives a floral, grassy and herbal nose.
Saligo Ale 4.4% ABV
Saligo Ale is a drink for the summer. Pale, lager and wheat malts produce a golden coloured beer, reminiscent of sandy beaches and sunshine. While Golding hops give their rounded bitterness, adding Bramling Cross hops as both a flavour and aroma hop give a refreshing and citrusy, lemon and grapefruit nose and taste.
Angus Og Ale 4.5% ABV
Angus Og was brewed for the 2004 Islay Festival of Music and Malt. It proved very popular and has been continued!
Ardnave Ale 4.6% ABV
Ardnave Ale is a dry, thirst quenching, hoppy bitter. Brewed using mainly pale malt, a small amount of crystal malt adds just that little bit of extra character. A high hopping rate, using Golding, Mount Hood, Fuggle and Styrian Goldings give this beer a real thirst quenching dry character.
Dun Hogs Head Ale 4.4% ABV
Dun Hogs Head Ale is a dark, dry stout brewed using pale, crystal, chocolate and wheat malts together with un-malted roasted barley. Golding and Bramling Cross hops are used for the bittering, giving a fruity edge to the dry bitterness that comes from using highly roasted malts. Late additions of Bramling Cross hops to the boil add another dimension to the aroma of the beer.
Nerabus Ale 4.8% ABV
Nerabus Ale is our winter warmer; a deep ruby colour brewed with pale, caramalt, dark crystal, chocolate and wheat malt. The hops used are Amarillo from America and Bramling Cross from England. It has a black treacle, spicy flavour balanced by the use of spicy and citrusy hops.
Single Malt 5.0% ABV
A full-value, chunky beer loaded with tangy hops. A terrific partner for a ripe stilton or an extra mature cheddar.
Kildalton Ale 5.1% ABV
A winter beer, brewed using ginger and cinnamon
*subject to availability - due to stock levels we may alter the exact numbers of each bottle of Islay Ale in your case.
