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.
