Ingredients

Steve is going to order in a bale of Cluster and Spisselspalt, He's got Fuggles and Goldings in already, as well as a sack or two of standard pale malt, so you can get the malt/hops in the exact quantities you need directly from him if you wish, rather than being left with some you're not likely to use again. Also, he's almost certainly going to be cheaper, especially when you take delivery into account.

Thanks Steve

Just days ago Ron Pattinson called out on his blog with the hope of setting up some Scottish-themed events in the UK. Steve from Beer Nouveau has done a great job at securing his time and putting this on for us all. Cheers!
