    Item no.: 059463-615-5591

    A tribute to the Scottish Highlands, brewed in Hørning. Tor Dhubh is dark, dry and honest - no detours, just roasted malt and a bitterness that knows exactly what it wants.

    Tor Dhubh is a dark, roasted and classically dry stout at 4.2% - the first of its kind from Stepping Stone Brewing Company. The beer is brewed as a tribute to the Scottish Highlands and hits the style with precision: deep roasted malt notes, a pronounced bitterness and a dry, tight finish. Its low ABV keeps it easy to drink without losing character.
