Munton’s Gold- Highland Heavy Ale

Centuries ago in the highlands of Scotland, small breweries began producing rich, dark hoppy ales known locally as ‘Heavy’. In addition ‘Light’ beers were also brewed which are known south of the border as Milds. But it was always a pint of ‘Heavy’ which typified the highlander’s preference. Muntons Gold enables you to brew this distinctive bitter, with its dark, malty flavour balanced by a generous helping of hops. to enjoy Highland heavy Ale at its best, serve at cellar temperature.

These kits are made from premium malts produced at our own maltings in Stowmarket, Suffolk – The very heart of the granary of England. the malt is crushed, mashed and sparged to extract the true brewers wort, to which we add hops before boiling. Finally we evaporate the wort to concentrate the liquid into a viscous form. When you make beer from a Muntons Gold kit you simply replace the water that we have removed and then carry on the traditional practise of brewing. The beer you make will taste great within weeks, but will also mature with age.

To appreciate this superb quality, try to keep a few bottles aside for 6 months or so.
