We were excited to visit the brewery as they also house Sòlas Distillery. Sòlas is currently the only Nebraska distiller with a product on the market (Joss Vodka).

Mad River Brewing – Stealhead Scotch Style Porter

Posted By John on June 19th, 2009

Beer: Stealhead Scotch Style Porter

Brewery: Mad River Brewing Co

ABV: 6.0%

Reviewed: 17-Jun-09 on Episode 145

Appearance: Deep brown bordering on black with a tan head.

Aroma: Bittersweet chocolate and roasted flavors.

Taste: Nice sweetness with roasted characters. Some good bittersweet chocolate and light coffee flavors as well.

Mouthfeel: medium bodied decent beer.

Aftertaste: Roasted flavors finish it off. This is what you would expect

Overall: What the hell is a Scotch Style Porter? We know porter. We know Scotch Porter. Is it a porter with an accent? We don’t know. Other than an ambiguous style name the beer was pretty good. Nice roastey dark beer, that despite the label art did not make me want to wear a kilt.

Best enjoyed at: a Scotch style event.
