Brock Street Scotch Ale

Aroma: 7 | Appearance: 7 | Mouthfeel: 6 | Flavor: 7 | Overall: 7

Deep amber colour, fairly clean, with caramel-golden highlights. The frothy beige head has average retention and some traces of foamy lacing. Caramel malt base with some nice spices, hints of dark fruits and booze. The mouthfeel is wet with some light dryness to come, but pretty thin all-around. The taste shows again some decent spiciness over the caramel and fruity malts. An easy-going, thinner, slightly warming Scotch ale with some good spices that blend the malts.

The beer pours a translucent dark cherry red colour with a thin creamy light tan coloured cap that lasts several minutes. The aroma is roasted malt, molasses, and some floral hops in the background. The mouthfeel is medium bodied with average carbonation. The flavour is sweet up front with notes of molasses and roasted malt, and finishes with a sharp bitter hop kick. This is a style that more Ontario brewers need to get behind, because when done well like this one, it’s one enjoyable style.
