    Patience is worth it.

    Have patience let it brew properly . We tested it at 3 weeks and it was a bit under the projected ABV-0.5 so we let it go another 5 days and hit the mark. It’s pretty tasty.

    I did the brew in the 2 gallon keg. Since I had a previously one leak I hand tightened the spigot before filling. Did the brew on a tray to ensure if it leaked it was caught. The brew went quickly due to the summer temp and was quite cloudy so I went to cold crash it. Within an hour of being in the fridge it was all over the floor! Completely emptied out. Customer service said perhaps the spigot was too loose but it held for two weeks. The little brew I was able to taste in the hydrometer was pleasant with a thin body (but there was no carbonation so it could have improved). I love scotch ales and sad not to be able to try it.

    Can't wait!

    Really looking forward to this brew! Been following the instructions and so far so good. Tested yesterday and it was very tasty. ABV right around what it should be. I'm far from an expert but I know what I like. Had some Scottish Ale in the past that was very good and some that was not so much. If the finished product is anything like the taste I had the McWee will not disappoint me.
