About

Old Engine Oil is a classic stout from Harviestoun Brewery in Scotland, brewed to a 1970s home-brewing recipe. This dark, full-bodied ale is crafted from a blend of roasted malts including pinhead oats, delivering a remarkably smooth and creamy character. The aroma leads with roasted coffee and dark chocolate, followed by subtle notes of nuts and dried fruit. On the palate, chocolate and toffee flavours are balanced by a measured bitterness and smoky undertones. The finish is clean and dry, with no harsh alcohol warmth despite its 6% strength.
