After many requests over many years, Highland will release its first organic beer--Black Mountain Bitter--during the week of January 12. A style of Pale Ale, Black Mountain Bitter will be lightly hopped with traditional British hop varieties to balance the malt sweetness yet encourage it to tend toward the dry side. We recently received our organic certification from Clemson University after undergoing a rigid inspection and two-month compliance process. Although this represents a big step for Highland, the idea of an all organic product is consistent with our corporate ethos and embrace of natural traditional brewing methods. Black Mountain Bitter is the latest in our line of seasonals named after mountain peaks in Transylvania County in Western North Carolina.

Almost clear pale yellow-gold pour with a thinning white head and some lacing. Slightly sweet and floral aroma with some malts and hops. Taste is nicely sweet malts upfront then a a slight floral hops bitter in the end that is mild. Nice session ale.

This beer pours a pale golden color with a moderate white head. The aroma contains lemons, grassy notes and a light herbal scent. The flavor is rather tame with some bitterness presence. I taste lemons, bready notes, and really not much else. Not much malt backbone to this one. The finish is slightly dry. Overall Highland makes much better but this is an ok quaffing beer.
