Holy Goat: 1895 Shipwreck Export Stout (440ml)
£5.39
Holy Goat: 1895 Shipwreck Export Stout (440ml)
Brewed in collaboration with Epochal Barrel Fermented Ales.
This is a recreation of a beer that found in bottles retrieved
from a shipwrecked vessel Wallachia, which sank after a
collision in the Clyde Estuary in 1895. The beer itself was a
strong export stout from the McEwan’s brewery in Glasgow,
destined for the West Indies.
Our version utilises ingredients typical for the period,
including heritage Chevallier base malt, amber, brown and
black roasted malts and No.2 Invert sugar. We have released
this version of the beer as close to what we think the original
would have tasted like young, with another portion aging in
barrels with mixed cultures harvested from the original
bottles, for release once the beer is aged for one year.
