BOW–”Highland Ambush”
The Beer Of the Week for the week of 8/29/2011 is:
Bridgeport’s Highland Ambush
Straight outta Oregon comes a new angle on the venerable Scottish Ale. This Wee Heavy starts with a fizzy blast across the palate followed by strong flavors of toasted malt and hints of vanilla.
The ale spends the first part of its life in bourbon barrels and features a well-blended collection of natural flavors that give a quality representation of the style. The only question was the hops and where did they go? Overall a solid selection for a post toil Saturday evening starter.
3.2/5.0
