For centuries the soldiers of the Highland and Lowland Regiments of Scotland have been referred to as "Jocks" : powerful fighting men who have won battle honours all over the world from historical times to the present day.
These men,who often fought in terrible conditions against great odds,were reknowned for their determination and valour.

Old Jock Ale reflects the strength and character of these men who would have enjoyed such a strong ale.


At 6.7% ABV Old Jock is a beer to be savoured. Full-bodied and warming with the characteristic estery, fruity flavour associated with strong beers. The balance to the sweetness of the alcohol is created by the use of an excellent hop bitterness.

Old Jock is a classic Scottish Ale and like all strong ales is best enjoyed at room temperature 10-12°C.

Major ingredients are:-
Maris Otter Malt, Roast Barley.
Hops used are English grown Target, Fuggles and Goldings.
