Steelhead Brewing’s Wee Heavy Scotch Ale clone

A Burton ale is a rich, malty, bitter, warming beer that has a comforting feel about it, which does make it a good winter beer. However, it traditionally was served year-round when tastes differed.This recipe was based on Burton Ales being brewed during the pre-WWI era.

Pete Rahn, QC Supervisor at Magic Hat Brewing Co. provides a recipe to BYO from his homebrew collection. "My brother went to Scotland for a year. I brewed this Scotch ale the day he left and conditioned it for the year he was gone."
