Sep 7, 2009 Draught. Pours clear dark orange with a small, frothy white head, mostly diminishing with spare lacing. Aroma is heavy malt (cookie), light hop (grass), average yeast (dough) with notes of dates, apple, and honey. Medium bodied, slick texture, soft carbonation, and an astringent finish. Average duration, heavy sweetness, light acidity and bitterness.

Aug 4, 2009 IMy car broke down in Rock Springs Wyoming, leaving me stranded for a few days. Finding the Bitter Creek Brewing Co. was the first good thing, Trying the sampler and experiencing the Wee Bastard Scottish Ale was the second. Easily the best of the samplers with a full taste, just enough hops, not too smokey and a smooth finish. The key to this beer is balance: perfect ammounts of each ingredient so that none overwhelm and deminish the others flavors Definitely worth a trip back to Wyoming.

Oct 29, 2008 On tap @ BC. Let’s be clear: this is not at all a Scottish Ale. It isn’t dark, it isn’t thick, it doesn’t taste of peat, chocolate or roast. It smells and tastes like organic homemade raspberry jam, which is not at all unpleasant, just totally out of left field.

Aug 23, 2007 My least favorite of the group here. Amber body. Aroma is doughy with caramel, very sweet. Hops are hard to find. Too sweet and mainly simple for my tastes.

A nice easy to drink Scottish ale with a good amount of alcohol at 6.5% this was a great beer. The malts and the smokiness where very good I liked how this beer drank from start to finish.
