Commercial Description:
Josh's translation of the Spanish description: Ale (top-fermentation) has many followers at the Brewpub Antares, in Mar del Plata. A flashy ruby colour, fruity taste and malt accent are typical of beers in this style. And this is as well – because in Scotland – the place where Scotch Ale was born – the climate is good for barley, but not so friendly for hops. Antares Scotch is a beer with a full body. The alcohol level of 6%abv is virtually unnoticeable. It is recommended that Scotch ales should be served at 10C. This is ideal for drinking alone, or with beef, pork or pizza.

(Bottle 33 cl) Clear amber golden with a dense, off-white head leaving laces. Sweetish caramel in the nose. Surprisingly light-bodied with a little burned caramel and a whiff of cardboard. No bitterness. Rather poor. 200908

Draught at Gibraltar, Buenos Aires Deep ruby. Aroma of resin and butterscotch. Fairly sweet, caramelly and medum-full bodied. Low on hops, allowing malt to dominate,although despite being mouthfilling the burst of flavour is short. Solid, but somewhat sweet and unrefined.

Hazy reddish-chestnut. No head. The aroma is toasty with chocolatey accents, earth, nuts. Full body at first, but gets a bit watery late. Watery-ish finish aside, it is mostly chewy. Sweetish flavour carries toasty, earthy malt notes and maybe some vague esters just for fun.

Bottled
A bit hazy ruby color, small off-white head. Caramellty, grassy nose. Light, caramelly, butterscotchy and grassy flavor. It is kind of Scotch ale, but not really really enjoyable one.
