Body/Mouthfeel: slight carbonation with some spice, slight creaminess

First Taste:  The first taste is smooth, malty with a slight smoky taste and you really notice the spice. Sweetness is there but after thought. This beer is really good but doesn’t stand out for me. Tastes similar to other beers I’ve had but is still very tasty. The level of smokines is nice and the malts seem like they’ve had a ton of care put into them. (from Monday Night Brewing: In a difficult hop-growing climate,Scottish brewers relied on other ingredients to impart flavor and bitterness – one such ingredient was smoked malt.)

Season: specifically Winter but Fall and all the time too

Food/Dessert: It is the dessert. You could eat with steak.

Scale: 6.8
