First brewed in 2016 on International Tartan Day, Black Watch wasn't only our first barrel-aged beer, it was the first in our beloved Smugglers Bay Collection & proved to be unsurprisingly delicious. Since then, Head Brewer Jason Bathgate has promised it again. So it is that Black Watch 2020 is a marriage of styles - classic Wee Heavy meets Russian Imperial Stout. Dark as night and layered with roasted and sweet malts, it's bold, bitter and luscious. We used a parti-gyle mash for massive structure and legs to rival the best red wines. Enjoy now or cellar for as long as you're able.
