Beer Profile

Scotch Ale

This Scotch Ale, or Wee Heavy, pours a deep copper to mahogany hue, often exhibiting excellent clarity. The aroma is dominated by rich, complex malt character, featuring notes of caramel, toffee, and dark fruit reminiscent of raisins or plums. On the palate, a substantial malt sweetness is balanced by a warming alcohol presence and low hop bitterness. The mouthfeel is full and smooth, leading to a satisfyingly long finish where the malt depth persists. This style is known for its robust, malt-forward profile and typically features a higher ABV.
