INNIS & GUNN LAGER BEER
Inspired by some of the most popular pints in brewing history, our new range pays homage to some legendary beers...Headlining our new Craft Brewed range is our Lager, made in small batches with Naked Golden Oats.
LAGER BEER
4.6% ABV
Our Lager is made in small batches with Naked Golden Oats and great Scottish pride and exuberance, which give it its full flavour and very smooth finish.
Unusually, as well as our own, unique Lager malt, we have added some Naked Golden Oats to the brew, which impart a satisfying smoothness to the finish.
Naked Golden Oats are grown without husks so that even more goodness and flavour can be extracted during brewing.

MOORHOUSE'S BLACK CAT RESERVE
Moorhouse’s, the Lancashire-based independent brewer is to launch a bewitching special edition of it’s ‘Black Cat’ dark ale (3.4%), a former winner of the coveted CAMRA Champion Beer of Britain. Primarily available as a 4.6% cask beer, there will also be a 7% version with limited cask availability – the latter will also be available in bottles, to be sold exclusively by the Booths supermarket group. Moorhouse’s describe the beer as “An intensely dark beer, Black Cat Reserve conjures deep complex notes of roasted coffee chocolate and mocha, balanced by hints of dark cherry and blackcurrant from the Polish Junga hop’. The Burnley brewer’s link with Halloween is well established – largely due to their award-winning brews with names centred around the story of the witches of Pendle Hill (aka Pendle Witches) near Burnley in Lancashire; Black Cat reserve will join other themed beers including ‘Broomstick Bitter’, ‘Witchhunt’, ‘Black Witch’, ‘Witches Cauldron’, and ‘Witchfinder General’ – continuing the theme of their core beers ‘Blond Witch’, ‘Pendle Witches Brew’ and of course ‘Black Cat’.
