Allagash Brewing Co Pictavia Scotch Ale

Pictavia Scotch Ale: 7.5 – A very very well done scotch ale, another great hit from Allagash. This is certainly what you want from a scotch ale, and the barrel aging from the scotch barrel hasn’t turned it cloyingly sweet like some bourbon barrels do. The problem here is that you kind of wish it was more. It’s a solid scotch ale of course, but it’s missing that tiny bit it needs to push it over the edge.

Price Average: $20 for 4-pack

Avery Brewing Tangerine Quad Belgian Quadrupel Ale

Tangerine Quad: 2.0 – There is something that you won’t notice on this at first glance. Now the idea of a Quad with Tangerine’s – sign us up. (We already subscribed by the fact that we bought this). However you may notice the small words ‘aged in bourbon barrels’ and inferred by the score that they did not in fact pull that off. There doesn’t seem to be a reason why this was aged, but it turns it into nonsense.

Price Average: $13
