It's all Scotland this episode - from a nice, smoooooth Scottish Ale to a Heather Ale - perhaps the oldest beer recipe still in use, over 4000 years old! We talk about Scottish beer ratings in "shillings" - an outdated but still used beer measurement, and then all about the Gaelic tradition of Fraoch - or spiced "Heather" beers.

    hi guys the shilling rating on scots ales/ beer originated from the tax that was levied on a cask of ale based on the alcohol content. to help you the pronunciation of Fraoch is (phrew-uch)
    slainte (slanj) .
