Cold Smoke Scotch Ale earned a silver medal in 2002 and a gold medal in the 2007 NABA brewfest. Formulated with Montana grown 2-row barley, northwest Goldings hops, and lotsa love, this hearty ale drinks very smooth. Not bitter at all and not too sweet either. Novice beer drinkers have been known to take a taste and then say, “WOW! That’s not what I expected… that’s GOOD!” A hint of roasted barley lends a slight coffee-like smoky finish. It packs a 6.5% abv punch. Perfect after a day of rippin’ lines on area or your favorite back country getaway.

16 oz. can from Withey's Health Foods in Kalispell, MT. Pours a clear dark root beer color with a small khaki head and good retention. Spotty lacing. Light smokey malt aroma. The taste follows the nose: Dark malts and sweet toffee flavor with a light smokey finish. Very subtle and mellow for 6.5% ABV. Low carbonation. Medium-light body. Not bitter. Smooth and easy drinking. Pretty good for a cheap, local gas station beer. More of an Irish ale versus Scotch ale, IMHO.

Can. Huge thanks Tony K.! Dark amber body, hazy, big thick off white head. Dusty malty aroma, huge caramelly notes, a bit dry. Lean malty taste, very pleasant caramelly lighter notes, nicely dry and bitterish considering the style. Pleasant, quality Scottishoid ale.
