Strongest of Usher’s trio of B suffix Shilling Ales was, logically enough, 60/-. Which is the only one clawing its way above 3% ABV.
This and the above 50/- were members of a five-way parti-gyle. Along with and 80/-, 100/- and 54/- M. Quite an interesting mix.
Not much more I can say about this beer. Other than that it looks like another beer for sharing with the kiddies while eating your tea.
All three of these beers are very weak for the late 19th century. You only really see beers of this strength in Scotland and more rural parts of England.
