Dirty Bastard

Scotch Ale / Wee Heavy

So good it’s almost wrong. Dark ruby in color and brewed with seven varieties of imported malts. Complex in finish, with hints of smoke and peat, paired with a malty richness and a right hook of hop power to give it the bad attitude that a beer named Dirty Bastard has to live up to. Ain’t for the wee lads.

Malty, earthy, and a bit boozy , fresh out of the fridge. I’ve found the alcohol to fade as the brew warms up a bit.

Scotch Ales were once my favorite style. Caramel maltiness taste, strong ABV.

Brew night with a Dirty Bastard. It’s been a while since the last batch, and I have a new fermenter to try out. Making a Mocha Espresso Stout…

Upon reappraisal, I give it a weak 3.5. Bitter. Harsh chocolate. Less than full bodied.
