Very dark brown, tiny edge of tan foam, some sediment. Smell is peaty with some maltyness underneath, bit of sweetness. Body is a tad light, but not worryingly so. Soft, very low carb, touch drying. Taste is dry peat, whisky, bit of caramel. Not that bad.

Je ne remercie absolument pas la brasserie Kees pour ce Scotch Ale vieilli en fût de Bowmore. Et ce n'est là pas le vieillissement en fût auquel je fais un reproche, de toute façon celui-ci ne s'exprime pas tant que cela vu que ce sont les arômes de fumé qui prennent le dessus sur tous les autres.... La brasserie a-t-elle réellement goûté la base avant de la mettre en barrique ? C'est du 100 % fumé avec du caramel. Le barriquage ne sert strictement à rien ici. Cela me passe l'envie de continuer cette critique. Quoiqu'il n'y a pas grand-chose à rajouter...visuel correct sur un brun foncé sans mousse. Une corpulence et une longueur pas exceptionnelles. Des arômes plats dominés par un fumé très imposant. L'équilibre houblon/sucre/alcool est cependant correct. Mais à quoi bon, pour un raté.

Can shared at home. Pours black with little head. Aroma is dark malts, chocolate, loads of peat. Medium body. Flavour is malty and quite sweet, some caramel and chocolate. Definitely dominated by a huge amount of peat, some whisky warmth. Not an overly complex brew, but delicious if you like Islay whiskies. Finishes warming with whisky and peat. Lovely.

Can. Dark brown pour. Aroma of really strong smoke, peat, caramelised malt, bandaid and some more peaty scotch. Taste has rich smokey peat, iodine, caramelised malt, some raisin, rich scotch and a heavy peaty finish. Very nice if you like whisky beasts.
