Bert Grant's Scottish Ale
The beer decamps the 12-ounce stubby brown bottle deep amber to copper color with a modest light tan frothy head that erodes leaving a satisfactory coating of lace upon the glass. Nose is sweet malt, fresh and clean, a hint of caramel, nut-like, start is sweet with a decent grain presence, top is light to middling in its feel to the palate. Finish is briskly acidic, the hops apropos to the style, dry lingering aftertaste, and a nice drinking beer that I sample often, Bert was a true master of brewing, and he is sorely missed.
