Wasted Degrees Brewing 80-/
Scottish and Iris Ale 5.5 º
Wasted Degrees Brewing 80-/ is a quintessential Scottish Export, presenting a deep copper hue with a focus on rich, kettle-caramelized malt. The aroma is defined by layers of toffee, toasted breadcrumbs, and a hint of butterscotch, supported by a clean fermentation profile. On the palate, a medium-bodied sweetness of graham crackers and biscuit is balanced by a characteristic faint roasty dryness in the finish rather than aggressive hop bitterness. At 5.5% ABV, it carries a smooth, creamy mouthfeel and a gentle, well-integrated alcohol presence, making this 'Heavy' a robust yet approachable example of traditional Scottish brewing.
Appearance. Deep copper to reddish-brown with excellent clarity. It supports a moderate, creamy off-white head with good retention and fine lacing.
Aroma. Moderate malt intensity featuring prominent notes of caramel, toffee, and toasted English biscuit. Subtle red apple esters are present, while hop aroma is very low to absent, showing only a faint earthy quality.
Taste. Rich initial malt sweetness of toffee and caramelized sugars. The mid-palate introduces toasted bread and nutty nuances. Bitterness is low, providing just enough balance to keep the malt-forward profile from being cloying. The finish is clean with a distinctive, light roasty dryness and a lingering malty aftertaste.
Mouthfeel. Medium body with a smooth, moderately creamy texture. Carbonation is moderate, and at 5.5% ABV, there is a light, well-integrated alcohol warmth without any harshness.
