Time to get one more brew in before the school year begins! This low-gravity Scottish Ale has become one of my favorites (it also won me a gold medal once!). Furthermore, It is suitable for creating a nice big yeast culture for something maybe higher gravity and dark coming your way this winter.... In the meantime, enjoy the brewsheet!
