Stewart Brewing Scot Free Pale Ale is the hop-forward entry in the Scot Free series, a 0.5% alcohol-free pale ale from the Loanhead craft brewery. At 9 IBU, it sits at a moderate bitterness level for the style, with the brand characterising the hop profile as bold and resinous, drawing on American hop varieties for its character. As the ale format within the Scot Free range, it takes a markedly hoppier direction than its lager sibling.
