Belhaven Wee Heavy / 90 Shilling (Bottle)

Brewed by Belhaven (Greene King)
Style: English Strong Ale
Dunbar, East Lothian, Scotland

Aroma features honey and floral notes. Lovely deep copper color. Flavor is biscuity, slightly sweet, with just enough hops for structure. Palate is silky, but finishes cleanly. A satisfying beer that’s a good counterpoint to hop-happy American craft ales.

Ruby red with a medium offwhite head. Sweet malt that is about as deep as a 6.5% beer should be; easy drinking but plenty of roasted malt taste. The faintest of alcohol in the finish. Quality brew.

Pours brown with limited head. Sweet taste with limited hops. Creamy and it went down smooth.

Pours a reddish-brown with sugar-laced maltiness. A very smooth brew, this one is a favorite to drink. Could be a bit sweet with limited hops for some, but for malt-lovers it’s a must drink.

pours a brown with a red tint, small dirty white head. smell is caramel, roasted malt, brown sugar. taste is creamy, sweet, malt, touch of coffee, nutty, some hops. this beer tastes much better than it looks, creamy, and a sweet nutty taste.

Draught at the Beer Bistro. Dark reddish brown with a creamy light tan head. Dry roast malt flavor, incredibely smooth and creamy. Woody, somewhat sweet smell with notes of port.

Pours a reddish brown color. Aroma is caramel malt. Flavor is toasty, malty, creamy.

500ml. bottle. Pours a brownish red hue with honey, caramel malt, dried apple fruit, and a touch of ginger on the nose. The palate is very creamy, and spreads out evenly . The flavor has rich, sweet malt, with a -I know, it’s weird- twizzler like fruitiness before a miniscule amount of hops arrive in the finish. My favorite Belhaven.
