Scotch-Style Ale

So good it’s almost wrong. Dark ruby in color and brewed with seven varieties of imported malts. Complex in finish, with hints of smoke and peat, paired with a malty richness and a right hook of hop power to give it the bad attitude that a beer named Dirty Bastard has to live up to. Ain’t for the wee lads.

Nie ma niefajnej goryczki co byla w 2016, ale za to mniej intensywna paleta, mniej ciala... nadal dobre piwko

Schöner Malzcharakter im Aroma. Im Trunk herrlich cremig, Schokode, Nuss, Karamell, super komponiert. Im Abgang dann röstig, Holzfass, hohe Drinkability, extraklasse.

Burk från SB. Mörk kastanjefärgad med tjusigt, krämigt smutsvitt lock. Maltigt och rostat med toner av knäck, karamell, kola, torkad frukt, mörkt socker, melass. Lite beska från humlen väger upp. Välbalanserat och smarrigt!

Bottle. Misty brown with ruby highlights. Moderate ivory-coloured well-lacing head. Aroma: malt symphony. Caramel, toffee, toast. Lots of nicely sourish fruit jam, dried fruit, some oak. Medium body. Moderately dry taste. Rich malts, again. Nuts, oak, fruits. Light bitterness. So good

From the bottle. Dark brown with a tan, creamy head. Aroma is earthy with chocolate and Backhaus. Taste is sweet up front, full of chocolate, licorice, smoke and caramel. Finishes warm with a whisp of bitterness. Body is full, rich, creamy. Overall a complex, we’ll balanced brew that betrays absolutely no sign of it’s ABV. I‘m at a loss for words. Excellent!
