Beer Advocate Review #262
Beer: Loch Ness
Brewery: Brasseurs RJ
Style: Scotch Ale
ABV: 6%
Serving: Bottle
Score: C+
Had this some pasta.
Poured from a 341ml. bottle.
Appearance: 4 fingers worth of light tan foam with an amber-red body. Retention is average as it dissipates within 1-2 minutes.
Smell: Toasted malt, caramel and a metallic twang. Some smoky ash also.
Taste: Caramel malt, some spiciness in the tail end and a hint of smokiness that as it warms turns into like an ashtray-like aspect. Mildly unpleasant though not pervasive.
Mouthfeel: Body feels a little thin but it's decent. Feels like a light scotch ale.
Overall: Seems kind of like an ashy vienna lager. Decent but nothing more.
