Commercial Description:
Named to commemorate the La Salle Hotel, once a Seattle bawdy house and the original home of the Pike Brewing Company. Old Bawdy is a vintage-dated, high-gravity beer brewed with peated Scotch malt. It has a deep golden bronze color, a fruity rich taste, and an aggressive and dominating hop character with smoky undertones that are reminiscent of Scotch whiskey.

2006 bottle @ the brewpub. Pours a slightly hazy dark golden color with a small white head. Sweetish malty and very hoppy grapefruit aroma. Sweetish and very malty sugary dark fruit flavor with hoppy hints. Long warming malty dark fruit finish with some hoppy hints.

Bottle shared by footbalm. Pours a cloudy amber with a tiny head. The aroma was sweet apple cider and candies. The taste was very smooth, full of caramel, some dark fruit, a touch of brown sugar, toasted malts, not much of a Scotch presence, but good nevertheless.

#1800, bottle. Warm wet barley grain aroma. Orange body with thin head. Had a fruity presence along with some moderate sweet chewy malted barley grain. Cigar aftertaste left on plate. Smooth enjoyable brew. Ms. Claus got me this one for me for a Christmas Present.

Hazy orangey red beer with almost no head but some sediment. Nose was very sweet caramel and a touch of alcohol. Some heat upfront and rather sweet with lots of caramel and some sweet fruit. Some citrus hops sneak in at the finish.
