Scotch ales are characterized by their full body, pronounced malty sweetness and low hop levels. Generally deep amber to brown in color, with caramel and subtle roasted malt flavors, Scotch ales can feature smoky flavors (derived from a small measure of peated malt) or, more traditionally, no smoky flavor.
Our Scotch Ale is a bold amber beer that balances smooth rich sweetness with a hint of smoked malt. The infusion of this subtle smokiness invites images of heather fields, platters of haggis, & the poetry of William McGonagall. Enjoy one with your mates!

Flaske hos Odd Gunnar, rbhd-treff 5.12.15: brunlig ravfarge og kort skum. Lite hunmlearoma (som det ofte er i denne stilen), noe tørket fiken, ristet brød med meierismør, fløtekarameller. Snev av røkt malt i både nese og gane. Også et lite anstrøk av epler. Myk og søtlig.

Shared bottle at at Gunnar’s 05.12.15, with OGJ, JMD, KH and ABE. Copper. Diminishing pale brown head. Aroma of raw malt, grains, butterscotch, caramel, syrup and berries. Similar, and very sweet taste with a hint of smoke.

Some peat and decent malt profile but not much here. Easy drinking and light on palate. Pours amber with good head. Tap at Churchkey.
