Commercial Description:
Our Scotch style ale is a perfect compliment to the holliday season. Big, robust and bold! Often called a "winter warmer, this beer is a Scottish strong ale with an extremely rich and full body. It is best enjoyed before or after a satisfying meal and should be allowed to warm up in order to enhance its rich malt flavors.

Piney hoppy aroma. Bitter, flowery, hoppy, spicy, slightly astringent taste balanced with the a thick mouthfeel.

kind of dull and uninteresting. Caramel, toffee, smokey, medium sweet and the finish is somewhat bitter.

Bottle at the Burger Bar in Las Vegas. Cherry red color with a small tan head. Aroma is sweet malt with some hints of smoke and vanilla. Flavor is creamy, roasted malt with a smoky astringence and a sweet toffee finish. Light carbonation and on the low end of medium bodied. A bit sweet for a scotch ale but a good beer that I would enjoy again.

deep dark hazy apricot color, slight off-white head that quickly dissolves into tiny bubbles around rim. sour fruit aroma , sweet malt, airy and mild. first flavor is a vinous assault, followed quickly by sweet malt. once the beer warms, the flavor turns creamy malt, but still vinous. full bodied, dry finish. not sure the brewer created a scotch ale here, but a tasty brew nonetheless.

Crushed with Jakebra. You want some scotch in your scotch ale? Here is it. Dirty Bastard, it is not, but it also won’t quite lift your kilt. Still a very nice, not subtle scotch ale.

Thanks to Ezra for sharing this bottle at his Scotch tasting. Poured a deep brown mildly chestnut hue with a thin taupe head. Satisfyingly smoky and rich. Malt driven and wonderfully flavorsome.
