Beer Review 7: Yes, a gem!
Brewery: À la Fut (french only)
Name: Sir Wallace.
With such a name, it should come as no surprise that this beer is of Scottish inspiration. And it delivers in spades. Some people are familiar with the beer and chaser. Such a drinking "technique" is not without it's drawbacks. Though it can be a very tasty experience, it can also be, rapidly inebriating. Myself, I love a beer and chaser from time to time and this particular brew delivers the experience in a single bottle: The fine selection of yeasts and fermentation technique delivers a delicious brown beer that has a hint of scotch taste.
Yes you heard me, it's like having scotch right in the beer. And the combination flavor is stunningly good. In the series of beers I have tried from this brewer this one is by far the one to remember and though it also ranges in the 3$+ range, I eagerly recommend it as it has not only a distinctive flavor you are unlikely to find elsewhere, you also have a blend that is exquisitely executed. At 8.0% per alc. vol, you may want to be easy on it, though I can almost guarantee that you will be tempted not to.
