Turning Scottish?

Is it possible? My favorite style is 80/- and now one of my favorite bands is Battlefield Band. What’s happening to me?

All you need is a good bottle of single malt and you’re there !

Sweet!

and a kilt. mustn’t forget the kilt.

It’s on the list.

Do you drink hot scotchies?

Don’t buy a kilt! It’ll attract unwanted attention on the bike.

Apparently you’re evolving.

“I don’t know where you’ve been laddie, but I see you’ve won first prize!”

utilikilt makes one with a ‘modesty snap’ that should cut down on that particular problem.

Buy a kilt. they are the single most comfortably piece of clothing a man can own that is generally accepted by ‘mainstream’ society. Man what I wouldn’t give for a really MANLY sundress :o

I love my entry level kilt ($100) . And now that I know that I may step up to a Utilikilt, but they are a bit pricey. Great to brew in on a sunny day, just know your neighbors line of sight!

Well a kilt from Seattle seems odd, but I’ve heard of them before. Might have to go with the carhart version.

That might be the required uniform while brewing a Scottish Ale.  BTW, do you mind sharing your recipe?

5 gal

6lbs Golden Promise
6lbs Munich 10L
2 oz carafa II special
Malt fwd water profile
Mash at 154-156º

Reduce first gallon of first runnings to a quart

28gm EKG at 60
28gm EKG at 15

Wy1728 at 60º

By the way Steve, my next brew days is this batch. Im doing a second batch just like it but subbing in 6 lbs UK Brown malt for the Munich and Carafa. Just to do a side by side and perhaps keep it all UK.

Buying a bottle of Laphroig actually gets you a square foot of property on Islay.

Or Lagavulin and they throw in a set of bagpipes.

Sweat pants, Mort.  Though I guess that’s climate dependent.

yeah, 110*f and sweat pants, you find out why they are called SWEAT pants.

I bought some sweat pant shorts a few years ago.  Awful concept.  I might still have them.  They are actually heavier material than most of my sweat pants.

Yeah, I’ve got some too and barely ever wore them. Dumb concept - extra warm shorts.
