33 cL bottle. Pours clear and golden orange with creamy white head. Medium dry malt aroma. Flavour is mild hoppy to a malt flavour with light whiskey notes and mild fruit. Mild malt driven flavour into the finish.

Curiosidade: o nome dessa breja faz referência ao monstro do Lago Ness, tendo inclusive um brasão no rótulo, com a figura do polêmico bicho. Coloração âmbar translúcida, espuma bege densa, de boa formação e média duração, deixando marcas nas laterais da taça. Suave. Quase não há amargor. Corpo leve. Notas de malte e caramelo.

Pours an awkward green tinted amber orange/amber with a minimal beige froth. Extremely grassy nose, hay and dirt. Wow, crazy malt flavor. So grassy, lots of hay, tangy and sour, semi-sweet. Very earthy. The finish is really the highlight, lots of peaty scotch notes. The body is very glassy, minimal carbonation, mimics a scotch. The more I drink the more I want a glass of one of the 6 classics. This would make more sense if it was much higher in ABV. Takes a while to get used to that Highland taste coming from a beer, it’s really quite perplexing and I could completely see how non-scotch drinkers would not get this beer.

A smoked? Seriously? Anyway, pours a light straw color with thin white head. Aroma is of uncooked malt and some cereal grains. No smoke though. Taste is a light malt beer with little hops or anything else. A real basic beer that doesn’t belong in this style. Alcohol is well hidden and carbonation is light. Not horrible, but not great.

Pours a clear golden color, with a medium frothy head that leaves some streams of sticky lacing. Aroma is sweet, citrus, and light hop notes. Taste is the same. Umm......I’d say this is a Pilsener or a Lager style of some sort. Smoked? No way!
