Belhaven Scottish Stout

A new one from Belhaven
Belhaven Scottish Stout...$4.19 / pint
Some info from their website:
We reckon this is the porter equivalent of the tall dark handsome stranger, but with its blend of triple malts, roasted chocolate flavour and hop character, once you've tried this deluxe stout you'll want to get reacquainted.


Belhaven Brewery is proud to announce that Belhaven Scottish Stout has received top marks from the Beverage Testing Institute (BTI) in their 2008 World Beer Championships Awards.

The deluxe handcrafted stout at 7%, was awarded its top rating - 96 points and a Platinum Medal - in the 'Strong Stout' category.


"It's an honour," said George Howell, Head Brewer at Belhaven Brewery. "Belhaven's products are all about quality, flavour and authenticity. Achievements like these validate the brands position as an authentic, deluxe stout. The brand was only launched in 2007 and it is already one of our top selling export brands in the States".

The Scottish Stout was described by the Beverage Testing Institute as having "aromas of baker's chocolate" and "charred nuts". Delicious!

Good reviews already...
