Born in the luminous moors in an environment of untamed lochs and haunted Scottish castles, the ale Gordon Scotch Ale is so generous that it is willingly shared. Its white, unctuous foam, in total contrast with the dark brown elixir, is a pleasure for the palate. The connoisseur fraternity will recognise the authentic Scotch : the soul of the Scottish Highlands.

Flesje gedronken tijdens vakantie in Ardenne.
Bruin helder bier met flinke schuimkraag.
Aroma is zoet en moutig.
Smaak van karamel, donker fruit en hop.
De smaak van karamel en hop blijft even hangen.

Pours a deep reddish brown with a small beige head. Aroma of roasted malts, caramel toffee, chocolate, raisin. Sweet taste with a bittersweet finish. Decent ale, nothing special.

Удивительно но запах съож на нотки такого стиля как ламбик- фаро. Такие же приятно тошнотворно-сладкие нотки карамели и с приходом ириса. Очень много солода буквально бросаются на тебя уже при открытие. Легкие пряные ноты. Цвет темный, но прозрачный без осадка, пенка небольшая. Вкус более прямой, умеренно крепкий, ощущается теплота в горле. Немного карамели, слегка поджаренной что ли. Снова много разного солода, как и как будто для лагера так и карамельного. Легкая совсем нативная горчинка для пусичек. Послевкусие сладкое, карамель, ирис далее немного травянистости с намеками на патоку и сухофрукты.В целом весьма неплохо.

Haven't tried this since my very first visit to Brussels in 2008. Bottle from HoTM. It pours clear deep reddish - brown with a decent off - white head. The aroma is bitter - sweet, cola, caramel, dried fruits, raisin, sultana, toasted fruit cake, chocolate bourbon biscuits, brown bread and Dr Pepper. The taste is dry, toasty, earthy roast, some spice, bitter - sweet vibes, molasses, burnt toast, dried fruits, raisin, sultana, fug, fruit loaf, black bun, kick of booze, some light permanent marker pen vibes, tannin and walnuts with a dry, toasty finish. Average carbonation in soft carbonation. I like the balance it strikes. Enjoyable.

Smell-weak, malt, some spice maybe, maybe caramel. Foam-thin, malty, weak roast, weak caramel, some bitter tones, and hops. Head is large, white with a brown tint. Sticks. Appearance- beer-specific bottle cap, somewhat simple label. Clear, ruby color, no carbonation. From - pint Taste- malty, caramel, some sweetness, some bitter tones and hops then, a bit of booze at the end. Overall fairly balanced. But will not go for it again.
