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.

0.33 l bottle from 'Carrefour' (Brugge), best before April 2023. Clear, ruby with a medium large, foamy, slowly diminishing, beige head. Sweetish-malty, gently fruity, a little boozy aroma of caramel, raisins, prunes, leaves and light cough syrup. Quite sweet, malty, hardly bitter, gently fruity taste of caramel, molasses, raisins, prunes, burnt sugar, cough syrup and thyme, followed by a short, gently bitter, minimally boozy finish. Medium body, smooth and gently effervescent mouthfeel, soft carbonation. Not a bad one, nicely balanced at least, still has that macro feel though.

Aus der Flasche im 2014-12 getrunken. Nach dem Name ist man schon überrascht das dies ein belgisches Bier im Stil eines Dubbels vor sich im Glas hat. Für mich war es eine positive und sehr leckere Überraschung.

Fles thuis geprobeerd. De kleur is robijnrood met een medium schuim. Het aroma is fruitig en zoet. De smaak is zoetig en moutig met een wat rozijnen achtige nasmaak.

Gordon Scotch Ale, Fläschchen von BierPost.com. - Dunkles Kupferrot, klar; sahniger Schaum. - In der Nase tiefes dunkel-toastiges Malz, Karamelbonbonsüße, feine obergärig-fruchtig Anklänge, schwache Hintergrundherbe; bei Erwärmung Anklänge an Sauerkonserven. - Antrunk füllig und schwer dunkelmalzig mit Kakao, Malzbonbonsüße und leichtem Süßsauer. Derbe krautige Herbe. Durchschnittlich rezent, breit; deutlich fuselig. Im Abgang ruppige, schroffe Bittere. - Krasses, billig bittergehopftes Starkbier, dem es entschieden an Tiefgang und Reife fehlt. Kein Genuß. (7.4.2020.)

Slight malt aroma, porto. Full bodied. Roasted malt in the taste. Hopbitter with biscuit, chocolate, coffee and toffee. Some sweetness. Bitter finish. Well made beer, but it’s just not my taste. Re-rate: Grapes and some roasted malt in the aroma. Very sweet flavor with porto, grapes, caramel, some roasted malt and licorice. laurel. Malty, full bodied, almost thick. If this is Scottish I’m Sean Connery.
