Rock Bottom Naughty Scot

Aroma is a roasted malt scent. Color is a deep solid brown with a very thick tight head. It starts with a full/medium body that goes down with a rich feel. finish is a deep, rich roasted flavor that turns a bit sweet and ends with a mild bitterness. After taste is the roasted malt flavor fading out slowly. This is a very good Scottish Ale and one of the better ones I can remember having.

Ruby red with a touch of smoke in the nose and a nice smoky/earthy flavor, balanced against a bit of butterscotch and a nicely dry hopped finish.

Sampled on 6/25/07 at RB Milwaukee on cask: Pours a barely transparent dark mahogany brown with some floaties and a creamy, light tan head. Lightly sweet, toasty caramel malty aroma has a hint of earthy peat. Body starts lightly caramely sweet with some earthy bitter tartness throughout toward a drier finish. Also tried the regular (non-cask) version and it had a little more sweetness and less tartness. I just wasn’t a fan of this.

On tap at Wisconsin State Fair, in the Beno’s beer tent. Dark, murky brown color. Smell of coffee, malt, smoke, little peat moss, burnt toast and nuts. Taste of roasted coffee, brad, caramel, coco, sugar and smoke.

Sampled on tap at RB Chicago. Murky brown with a tan head. Decent aroma, malty red fruit, layered and fresh. Malty red fruit flavors, cherries, some licorice, a little sweet. I’m really enjoying this one.

Best beer on tap. The girl gave it to me in a 10oz glass. I asked why? She said it beacuse it’s very STRONG!! 7%?? My piss is probably that on a Good night. Anyway, Clear amber in color with small white head. Sweet and breadywith a smooth body and mouthful. Nice and roasted, pretty good.

On tap at the King of Prussia location. Pours a translucent copper/golden with an average off white creamy head. Aroma of scotch, sweet malts and hints of oak and toffee. Flavors of the same. A solid Scottish Ale.
