Fraoch heather ale 5%
Froach er gælisk og betyder simpelt hen lyng. Brygget i Skotland siden 2000
før Krist. Lyng Ale er formodentlig den ældste ale-stil der stadig
produceres i verden. Fra en ældgammel Gælisk opskrift på "Leann Froich"
(lyng ale) er den nu blevet genopdaget og genintroduceret i den skotske
kultur. I de kogende bygkorn kommes sød porse og blomstrende lyng. Efter en
smule nedkøling hældes den varme ale i en tønde med friske lyngblomster,
hvor den trækker en times tid før gæring.
En lys ravgul ale med blomstrende, tørveagtig aroma - kraftig
malt-karakter, krydret urteduft og tør vinagtig eftersmag. Velegnet til
krydrede madretter. Eks. Haggis - Drikkes lettere afkølet af de originale
tilhørende lerkrus.

154 oF for 20- 40 minutes.
3. When starch conversion is complete, raise the temperature to 160- 165oF
(optional).
