Yet another beer I can't pronounce! But this is a Scotch Ale. I am a big fan of Scotch and Ale. Match made in heaven.
Beer pours out with sediment at the bottom of the glass with a light filming/head combination. It is rather cloudy with a brown color. The smell has a very solid Scotch Whiskey scent to it. It's also very sweet with touches of syrup/maple and fruits. The mouth is of, you guessed it, Scotch Whiskey. It's also surprisingly sweet with alcohol at the end. There's also a touch of wood taste - result of the aging process in whiskey barrels. Very cool touch. The texture is very smooth and almost frothy. There are very good transitions of flavors although the beginning was a tad dull.
This was a VERY solid brew. Well balanced and very enjoyable. If you like Scotch, Whiskey, brew, or any combination of the 3, I highly suggest this beer.
