Bottle thanks to dpjuart, thanks Dave. Poured a clear red-orange color with a thin beige head that faded to a layer. Sweet, light caramel malt aroma with some light peat, brown sugar, and a hint of fruit (apple). Smooth, sweet entry with some light caramel, a hint of brown sugar, and some light fruity undertones (apple). No peat or smoke present in the flavor. Moderate carbonation and decent mouthfeel. Average scotch, bringing nothing new to the table.

Light reddish bronze colored beer. The head is of a very light tan. Notes of toast and smoke in the nose. Flavor is strongly malty, sweet, with notes of caramel, toast, brown sugar. It’s a nicely balanced beer, but could benefit from a beefier body, natural carbonation. Decent Wee Heavy.
