About

John Martin's Gordon Scotch Ale is a Belgian-brewed take on the Scottish style, delivering a full 8% ABV. This dark reddish-brown ale showcases a robust malt profile with toasted bread, honey and caramel character. The taste opens sweet and finishes dry, with subtle spice and anise-like phenolic notes present throughout. Aromas evoke spiced biscuits, candi sugar and red fruit—plums and figs feature prominently. Built on caramel and crystal malts with minimal hop bitterness, this is a warming, full-bodied ale best savoured in measured sips. Strong yet smooth, it reflects the brewery's long tradition of crafting distinctive ales for the Belgian market.
