Strong malted barley flow given butterscotch influence backed by fruity notes. Fizzy hops soften maple creaminess and distant prune-date-fig tones for appealing well-rounded finish. Will appease wide range of drinkers.

(ISLE OF SKYE) WEE BEAST SCOTTISH ALE
Coppery Scotch ale retains soft-watered gently-hopped mocha dryness and swooning grapefruit-orange effervescence, peculiarly countering hearty ‘wee heavy’ rep. Regardless, toasted barley prompting cloaks caramelized raisin-fig souring and earthy peat register. Beneath slight metallic finish lies shy apple-peach-pear cluster.
TROUT RIVER SCOTTISH ALE
Peculiar Scot-styled ale finds early charred wood affluence and Scotch malt waver seized by dull port wining. By thin finish, muted raisin-fig dip gives way to acrid orange-tangerine blotch and spicy cardamom splotch. On second passing, erratic fruited whiskey coarsening and sharp prune-fig pungency undermine musty peat earthiness.
