About

Störtebeker Scotch-Ale is a robust beer from Stralsund, the German brewery named after the legendary 14th-century pirate Klaus Störtebeker. Brewed to a traditional Italian recipe using barley and wheat malt with restrained hop character, this strong ale delivers depth and character. The beer shows a reddish-amber hue with aromas of smoke and peat, alongside notes of dark fruit and vanilla. On the palate, malty sweetness takes the lead, complemented by subtle smokiness that remains smooth and approachable rather than harsh. The medium body and full flavour profile appeal to those seeking a more challenging, flavour-forward experience. The finish is warming and pleasant, with a lingering malty echo.
