From Wachusett Brewing – A ruby colored classic Scotch Ale made with crystal, Munich, smoked and special malts. No spices needed for this rich flavored brew.
Wachusett Brewing – Wachusett Winter Ale – 12 oz. bottle poured into a goblet. 6.1% abv. From Ray in MA.
Appearance: Pours a clear amber brown with a pin stripe of white at the top.
Aroma: Faint sweet malts.
Taste: Some dry and caramel like European malts, some slightly burnt toast, modest bitter hopping. Finishes with a little bit of a twang.
Mouthfeel: Full bodied and highly carbonated.
Overall: This is a sturdy ale. I haven’t had any other Wachusett beers, so I don’t know where this ranks in their lineup. The beer is good, and a tad warming.
