Fearless Scottish Ale
Fearless Scottish Ale, Brewed from the Magical waters of the Oregon Rivers. Brewed just for you by Ken Johnson, Grand, high Exalted Mystical Brewer and Owner of Fearless Brewing Company, Estacada, Oregon, Center of the Brewing Uinverse. Skoal!
I'm going to call that a joke. And wonder how you really spell "skol". Is that the chewing tobacco?
Anyway, about the beer?
Clouded, dense, crimson coloring, slim head.
Aroma: sweet and malty, copper-toned, with a touch of fruit. And just a little funky. And a bit weird. A bit metallic, and flinty.
Taste: Clean and malty. Brisk hops. Lasting bitterness. Feels a bit higher than we should expect from a Scottish, just a little.
It's a nice one. It's a good beer, and you can drink it. Well-balanced, tasty…solid.
Just not my style. I can drink it, but I can't get crazy about it.
