Product details

Some Scottish historians theorize that Charles Stuart didn't flee Scotland after the failed 1745 uprising; instead, he had a few too many Wee Heavies in the Outer Hebrides and then just sort of woke up in France. History may keep her secrets, but you can share the experience of a Wee Heavy. There's a little Jacobite Revolution in every bottle. These are the very strongest of all Scottish ales, with a garnet-brown hue, profound maltiness and high alcohol content. Our Wee Heavy showcases complex toffee and vinous notes and a restrained hop character. Best imbibed in small doses, this kit continues to develop with age and is great for cellaring. 

Due to the high starting gravity of this kit, we recommend pitching multiple packs of yeast or preparing a yeast starter for best results.

Extract Wee Heavy

I have made this in the past and it came out great. I still have a few bottles stored from that batch. I just bottled up this current batch and it tasted great. Will sit in the bottles for a few months before chilling and pouring into a glass and drinking.

Good, strong beer

This recipe is harder to brew than normal IPA, but it yields a great strong and smooth tasting beer.
