Birrificio Montegioco Mac
Strong Scotch Ale 7.2 º
This distinctive take on a Wee Heavy showcases an unconventional deep gold, hazy appearance, departing from traditional copper tones to highlight its unique ingredients. The sensory experience is defined by the bold inclusion of peated malt, delivering a profound smoky character reminiscent of Scotch whisky. Beneath the intense peat, layers of honeyed sweetness and ripe yellow fruit esters emerge, providing a complex aromatic foundation. On the palate, an initial honey-like richness is quickly overtaken by an explosion of earthy smoke, balanced by a subtle herbaceous hop presence. It concludes with a long, warming finish that balances malt depth with persistent, phenolic peat character.
Appearance. Deep gold to amber (12–14 SRM) with a veiled, hazy clarity. Pours with a dense, off-white head that shows moderate retention and light lacing.
Aroma. High intensity with dominant phenolic notes of peat smoke and earthiness. A supportive malt profile offers bready and honeyed sweetness. Moderate esters suggest yellow plum or ripe orchard fruit, while hop aroma remains low with a faint herbaceous character.
Taste. Initial honeyed malt sweetness transitions into a powerful, lingering peated malt flavor. Low to moderate bitterness provides balance without being sharp. Hop flavor is low and herbal. The fermentation character includes medium esters of yellow fruit. The finish is long and complex, characterized by persistent smoke and a residual malty sweetness.
Mouthfeel. Medium-full to full body with a smooth, somewhat viscous texture. Moderate carbonation. A gentle, well-integrated alcohol warmth is present, providing a pleasant glow without being harsh.

Prodotta con l'aggiunta di malto torbato (lo stesso utilizzato per gli Scotch whisky), si presenta di colore oro carico, velato. Al naso sono nette le note di torba, sotto le quali si intuisce una bella frutta gialla. In bocca entra mielata, poi esplode il torbato, che rimane con grande persistenza, accompagnato da un piacevole erbaceo di luppolo e da un netto aroma di miele. Birra complessa, lunga, dedicata agli amanti dei whisky torbati, ma di buon equilibrio.
