This is a one-off, smoked scotch ale brewed for the opening of le Saint-Bock, a Beer bar/soon to be brewpub.

Appearance: Dark cola brown with crimson notes, very minimal amount of lace with not much cling to it.

Smell: Pleasant smokey nose, it's more of a hickory, firewood kind of smoke, not the cooked ham/bacon. Funny, I would have expected more of a peaty kind of smoked, at least that's what I would have went for if I brewed it.

Taste: The smoke really is in the driver's seat in this one, in fact it tastes more like a Rauchbier. Could use a little more malt especially at first, you only get a tiny bit of sweetness in the tail end. Booze levels were perfect for me though, present, but only as a secondary role. Fans of smoked Beers should really enjoy.
