Portland Brewing – Noble Scot Scottish Ale Returns 9/19

From Portland Brewing:

PORTLAND, Ore. (August 31, 2015) — As we transition to autumn from summer, dust off your stockings and suit up in that old plaid kilt; it’s time for Portland Brewing’s Scottish Festival! The family-friendly affair features traditional dance and bagpipe performances, highland games and activities, live music from the band, New Shilling, and of course, Portland Brewing’s Noble Scot Ale. The outdoor celebration is free to attend and all ages are welcome. 

The liquid star of the Scottish Festival is Noble Scot. The complex and full-bodied Scottish Ale boasts notes of toast and caramel and a sweet, subtle smokiness for the bonnie days of fall. In addition to malts — 2-Row Pale, Smoked, Carapils, Roasted Barley and Melanoidin, — the seasonal brew is created with Northern Brewer, East Kent Goldings and Willamette hops. “We are excited to see fall return so we can bring this beer back once again,” said head brewer, Ryan Pappe. “At 6.5%, it has some alcohol to help fortify the body as we transition through autumn from warm weather to cold.” ABV: 6.5% | IBU: 25
