80 Shilling
3.9% Scottish Ale
80 Shilling is Belhaven’s classic, just like beer great great great grandpa would have had. It has a classic red appearance in the glass, rich and smooth. An Austrian Emperor once described 80/- as ’the burgundy of Scotland’. Not sure how many he’d had, but the man clearly had taste.

Written somewhat in retrospect, but I agree with James A's review.

Nice ale, lovely deep colour with subtle hints of toffee. I would say though 3.9 percent is rather low for an 80 shilling. Nonetheless could have a few of these back to back with rather ease.

Old school beer with a slight toffee taste

After a hard day's work this was glaring at me from within the fridge. It put even more hairs on my chest and I may have said a few anti-feminist statements during dinner, but it wasn't half bad.

Malty ale. Ok, smooth and easy drinking
