Commercial Description:
Laughing Lab has a nourishing maltiness that comes from six specialty malts. Its nutty, roasted flavor is mildly sweet, but not too rich. Smooth and luscious!

Nice chestnut brown color with a head that disappeared very quickly. It has a malty smell that seems pretty nondescript. The flavor seems right in line for the style but subtle. Malty, a little bit of smokiness but not overpowering like some Scottish ales I’ve had. Very easy to drink and I could probably have had more than one of these in a session.

Crushed with Jakebra at Falling Rock. Interesting nose of roast and sweet malt. Flavor is about the same. Mouthfeel is grainy and dirty and none too nice. Still a ok Scottish

12 oz. bottle. Pours a pleasant light tan head, over a clear body.....nose primarily light malts....tastes almost entirely of malt layers, with a bit of bitter towards the finish, pleasant, not really sweet, not complex, mouthfeel light to medium. Lack of complexity in the malt back bone is its weakness.

Had a growler of this when I went to Colorado Springs to visit one of my best friends the spring of 03. Surprised to find it this lowly rated as I enjoyed it immensely when I was out there. Of course I was stoned out of my gourd the whole time...

Clear brown amber with some decent head. Smell is super light dough. Flavor is strange funky sweet that isn’t very appetizing. Low to medium carbonation. Not great. Not horrid.

Draft at Falling Rock. Huge foamy tan head, body is the color of dark purple/brown and mostly clear with red light at the bottom. Carbonation is far too high, and the body on this beer is far too weak. Has a distinct note of diacetyl, some mild, buttery scotch and some pale and pallid herbal spices. Vegetal at times, very pale and bland with a thin texture. Disappointing.

This comes out of the tap a rich mahogany brown with a fine-bubbled head. Aroma is strong, spicy, malty, with a hint of hops. Flavor is rich and smooth, with hints of hops, caramel, smoke and cloves; the sweet nicely balances the hop bitterness. It goes down lively and sassy.

Pours a clear maroon color with a light beige head. Smell is malty, perhaps tart and caramelly. Taste is smooth, malty, lightly creamy and faintly peaty. Creamy, soft body with light carbonation. Decent for the style, but I don’t typically care much for it.
