Reserve No. 8: Scotch Ale
Cases Made: 1,504
Kegs Made: 29 1/2 bbls, 2 1/6 bbl
Date Brewed: July 6, 2009
Date Bottled: August 20, 2009
Original Gravity: 1.091
Final Gravity: 1.024
Alcohol: 9.3% ABV

Description:

This is a bold, malty, smoky Scotch Ale. It pours a deep amber brown. It was quite cloudy at the time of bottling, but will clarify as it ages. The nose is full of smoky toffee notes. The taste opens with sweet malt and spice, then the alcohol comes up with a light residual sweetness on the finish. A balanced smoky flavor is in this beer from start to finish, although it never is the dominant character. It was brewed with 2-Row, Biscuit, Dark Crystal, Amber, Peated, Caramunich and Wheat malt. It is hopped early with Hallertau Tradition and late with Hallertau Hersbrucker. We fermented DR8 with a traditional Scotch Ale yeast. It is unfiltered. Enjoy at 45°F or warmer. This beer was inspired by Phillip Kaufman’s winning entry in the 2009 Big Batch Brew Bash.

I didn't like this one. Too hoppy.


Love red/amber ales. This one is from the northwestern part of my state. Pleasantly surprised.
