Drank every beer on tap at McCall brewing one weekend with the little lady, except this one. So of course, I brought back a growler of it. Drank out of my Black Butte Porter pint glass.
Appearance- Pours a dark brownish mahogany with about a one finger sand head. Leaves a random cap and an excellent collar that lasts the whole beer. Leaves quite a bit of lacing as well.
Smell- A very nice lightly smoked peat is present along with a bit of sweet malt. Nice and doughy at the same time along with a slight bit of a citrus hop (very little). The smokiness is the star of the nose though.
Taste- Lots of rich toasted malt and sweet/toasty caramel malt are abundant in this one. A slight bit of smokiness is present but nowhere near the amount in the nose. Nice citrus tones as well, which kind of surprised me considering the huge dose of malt you get from the start. Sitting at 8.0%, Id have no idea as the alcohol isnt anywhere to be found.
Mouthfeel- Light body with a very crisp, refreshing feel. Light to medium carbonation.
Drinkability- This is a really solid brew. Id say the best that I had of all the McCall brews. If you like Scotch Ales, this is most definitely worth a try. Solid ass brew.
