Clear aproicot pour from the 11.2 oz bottle, this was one of the MJ’s classic 500 beers of the world and it’s rated low and classifed as a ’smoked’ when the bottle claims it to be an ’Original Red Ale’ Strange beer, a scotch red ale made in Austria..a bit sweet and sticky for my taste..but it’s another one to cross off the the list!

Bottled, 7.3% version. Poured clear, brighter golden with a short, fizzy cap of white head. The aroma picked up very sweet caramel and candy-like notes with a definite presence from the whiskey malt around.. somewhat smoky.. just too sweet overall. The flavor was also too far skewed to the sweet side with caramel and fruity candy present.. a touch bitter and a touch oaky on the edges with mild smoke to it.. sticky finish. Medium-bodied with ideal carbonation to move it across the palate.. again too sweet, but certainly drinkable.

Pours light golden amber with a medium sized white head. Aroma is caramel malt. Taste is caramel malt as well, with a slight bitter finish, not really getting much smoke flavor in this one though, just a little in the finish. Not bad though.

espuma de aparência inicial média, coloração esbranquiçada e reduzida longevidade, apresenta boa formação de colarinho em seu corpo claro, de coloração cobre. Seu aroma apresenta moderada presença de malte - de whisky, inclusive -, além de notas de melado e mel. Apresenta sabor inicial levemente doce e ácido, com leves dulçor e amargor no final, este de curta duração - notei ainda toques de mel, permeados por leve oxidação. O paladar é formado por corpo médio-leve, de textura aguada, forte carbonatação e final de sensação metálica.

11.2 ounce bottle from Westpark Wine & Beer in Richmond. Pours a clear light amber with a medium head. Nutty and grainy aroma. Very grainy taste with some apple-like fruit and honey notes. Medium body. Weird one.

Bottle. Light amber colour. Typical lager aroma. Tastes like a lager with a disturbing touch of whiskey extract. Very thin body.

Clear amber with medium off white head. Sweet malty aroma with notes of caramel. Flavour is sweet with toasted malt, caramel and it finished with a discrete bitterness.Slight notes of cardboard.

A cerveja do monstro Nessie tem coloração âmbar, creme pouco denso mas medianamente consistente. No aroma e no sabor, deu pra sentir bastante o malte torrado na turfa, típico das brejas do estilo. Final longo e levemente tostado.
