60 Degrees North by Lerwick Brewery

60 Degrees North, Shetland lager by Lerwick Brewery (4.8%)

A delicious, rounded lager, dangerously morish but sadly only comes in 330ml bottles. Happily, though, Lerwick is doing a bit of a mainland sales push so should be a bit easier to get your hands on. Taste of treacle and rich lager malts. Slight sourness beneath the moderate bittersweet finish. Hints of Marmite (mmmmm) and hay barns. Earthy, roasted and fresh. Smooth, and darker than your typical pilsner.
