Iron Hill Braveheart

Brewed by Iron Hill Lancaster
Style: Scotch Ale
Lancaster, Pennsylvania USA

Had this in summer 08-tap and growler. Hazy amber brown pour with small off white foam head. Dark fruits and malty sweet aroma carry into the pallet with an earthy grain-hop texture. Some pepper and spicy notes, smooth with ABV well blended in.

Poured a brown amber color with no head but light lacing left on the glass. Aroma of sweet caramel malts, some roast, nuts, and Belgian spicing. Taste of caramel malts, citrus fruits, toast, roast, light cocoa, some spices, and a bit of alcohol as well in the finish.

Nitro draft at Iron Hill Lancaster...pours dark brown with that nitro frothy tan head...aroma was sweet, malty...flavor was of malts, toffee-caramel, dark fruits with a very small trace of a spice (clove?)...some alcohol in the aftertaste...very smooth mouthfeel.

Draft in Lancaster. Poured a cloudy brown in color with a medium sized frothy tan head. Aroma is malty, semi sweet, caramel and a little dark fruits. Tastes of toasty caramel malts, candi sugar and some raisons. Some alcohol warming in the finish.

Cask on Lancaster Brewpub. Pours a mud colored brown with a creamy tan head. Aroma of fruity ale esters. Medium bodied with creamy and chewy texture, soft carbonation. Flavor of wet grains, brown sugar, and plums- with residual sweetness. Tobacco and small amount of pepperiness on the finish- with detectable alcohol that blends in. This has some phenols that are similar to ones found in Belgian quads. Interesting

Draft @ BCTC. Pours a dark, murky brown color with golden edges; thin off-white head. Tea, brown sugar, basic wet malts and cereal in the aroma; kind of bland, cereal-dominated. Medium-to-full mouthfeel: chewy caramel and brown sugar maltiness upfront; nicely chewy, dense maltiness; toasty grains; slightly heavy and dense on the palate; reasonably big scottish rendition. Lengthy finish: brown sugar, toasted malts, cola, and dried dark fruits.
