Red Lodge Jacks 90 Schilling Telemark Scottish Ale

Brewed by Red Lodge Ales
Style: Scottish Ale
Red Lodge, Montana USA

On nitro tap. Brown. This is a light, dry crisp ale. Scottish? Maybe. Good summer drink

Draught at GABF 2008. Clear brown - white head. Straw, grains, light soapy, caramel, light light smokey notes, chocolate, nutty, plain - but OK.

Growler poured a clear reddish amber with a small diminishing light amber head. Aromas of carmel, fruittiness, peat smoke and light toffee. Palate was medium bodied and smooth. Flavors of carmel, peat smoke, fruittiness and light toffee with a smooth lingering maltyt finish.

Looks and tastes a bit like Anchor Steam. Maybe a bit more amber in color. Has a coffee-like taste and some stout like feel without the heaviness. A high quality brew that’s worth drinking. Light head that disappears...

Sampled on draught and via nitro at Sam’s Tap Room, next to the brewpub in Red Lodge, Montana. Pours a coppery amber brew with a creamy off-white head that has a slow dissolve to a foamy ring. Aroma is sweet caramel malt, roasted nuts, some smoked toffee and light fruit. Taste is medium bodied, very light carbonation, very smooth with a rich caramel malt flavor. Finish is sweet with a mild caramel malt and peat aftertaste. Uff-dah! Brought back a growler of this back to Minnesota and it did not last long. Try this via nitro!

On tap at Sam’s Taproom adjacent to the microbrewery. Pours an opaque brown with tan lace. Medium-bodied with a full mouthfeel and slightly dry malty flavor.

(draft) Crystal clear copper-brown body with off-white head. Aroma is medium sweet, caramel, faint smoke. Taste is medium sweet, caramel, peach, light alcohol. Watery light-medium body.
