A Scottish-style pub ale, with a gentle yet rich slow spreading malt character, and clean but characterful fruity yeast character, and just enough classic English earthy and spicy hop nuance.

[Character]
A classic Scottish "80 schilling" style ale, this amber coloured ale features a toasty malt-forward character, with notes of crackers, biscuits, and honey. A more subdued hop character, and a balanced finish, makes this beer incredibly repeat drinkable, especially at your local pub!
[Food Pairing]
Onion rings with tartar sauce, ham and cheese ploughman's sandwich on rye bread with chutney, salty popcorn
[Naming]
The original meaning of a "Sharaku", or "Sharakumono" is essentially the character or personality in a public place who gets attention through their being an entertainer, being funny, a good storyteller, or generally charismatic. This type of person is exactly the type you might find in a British pub, creating atmosphere at the bar, and so we felt this a good fit for such a beer, who we hope will be enjoyed casually, with plenty of witticisms shared over it!
[Brewer's Voice]
We love a good Scottish ale. With Hops getting most of the attention nowadays, this beer style flies in the face of that trend. It’s all about a nice complex malt bill that balances the natural malt sweetness with flavours of honey, caramel, and biscuits, while keeping it drinkable. The name “80 shilling” refers to the tax price per "hogshead", a volume roughly equivalent to 250L, which was based upon the alcohol strength of the beer, in currency of the time (with shilling being equivalent to around 5 pence). With this, an 80-shilling ale would typically come in at about 4-5% ABV, and because of this higher ABV by contemporary standards in Scotland, this beer was often referred to as an "export" ale as the higher ABV helped it weather the international voyage better than its lower ABV counterparts. The Malt profile here was constructed from Pilsner and Maris Otter as a base, with Crystal 50, Munich 10 malt and roasted barley giving the beer its signature colour and flavours. This beer was allowed to boil slightly longer than normal, allowing the malt sugars to darken and caramelize. Classic English Fuggle hops were used for stability, and to add a slight earthy spice to balance out the malt sweetness. Fermented with a British Pub Ale yeast, this beer would be right at home in a UK pub, potentially being served from a handpump.

Brewer's Notes

Series: KBC2.0シリーズ
Character スコットランドの伝統的な“80シリング”スタイルのエール(=英国では、アルコール度数で税率が決められていたため、酒税の金額でビールの強さを表現することがある。例えば60シリング=ライトなビール)。この琥珀色のエールは、クラッカーやビスケット、蜂蜜を思わせる香ばしくモルト主体の滋味深い味わいが特徴。ホップは控えめに抑え、特にパブで楽しむ際には重要になるバランスの取れた後味を大切にし、何杯でも飲みたくなる一杯に仕上がっています。
Food Pairing タルタルソースで食べる肉厚オニオンリング、ライ麦パンを使ったチェダーチーズとハムのサンドイッチ、塩味の効いたポップコーン
Naming 英国の庶民文化を象徴するパブでは、夜な夜な洒落者が集い、ビール片手にウィットに富んだ冗談を交わしたり、情報交換に花を咲かせたりと、粋な社交を楽しんでいる。そんなパブで、昔から愛され続けてきたビアスタイルに焦点を当てたシリーズ─「洒落(しゃらく)」
