4 Cerveza Filled On 01/16/24. Appearance: Pours a clear, dark yellow-hued body with an initial surge of white suds. Modest lacing. Smell: Powdered lime. Light, cereal-sweet malts with a faint bread, toasty quality. Taste: Lightly sweetish, cereal-toned malts with an everso slight breadiness. A solid, hey-its-lime flavor without going too overboard. Sufficient, scantly herbal/spicy hops underneath. Lime flavor recedes into the background of the drying, crispish finish. Mouthfeel: Medium-bodied. Medium carbonation. Overall: I appreciate the lime is a nice accent and there is a well-built beer underneath, my only gripe is this out in the wintertime. This is a beer in the hand, toes in the sand kinda beverage. I mean, there's little starfish and sunshines on the can. Winter? C'mon, Highland, let's use our heads. Friday, March 8, 2024 | |

3.7 Highland Cold Mountain Winter Ale 12/19/21 Single from Whole Paycheck. Duvel glass @home. Filled 11/01/21. 5.9% abv. Dense egg cream head. Sticky. Mild malt, bag of cheap candy bars, very very gentle spice. Egg cream, Cola, Milk Duds, faded but lingering bitter spice. Flavors build a bit as it warms, lo-key raisin, peanuts, but who's going to nurse a 5% beer? Gentle, thin, non-demanding, smooth. Might have another. Tuesday, March 5, 2024 | |

2.9 Highland B’Autumns Up Okay, but light on complexity. Subtle cocoa notes are offset by yeast and apple and a touch of lemon. Finishes with continued yeastiness and a slight Noble bitter streak. Eh. Wednesday, November 1, 2023 | |

3.8 Highland Oatmeal Porter Very nice looking beer that pours to a beautifully puffy head that subsequently laces the glass throughout the drinking experience. Aroma is a smoky, almost charred, chocolate. It has a medium-weight body with a nice hop tingle on the tongue before settling into a sweet finish. From a wise friend making an NC run to see his brother and bringing back a nice selection including this one. Delicious. Poured from a 12-oz bottled filled 02/10/22. Sunday, May 14, 2023 | |
