Smoky George

◎ Appearance

Copper-coloured with good clarity and a dense, persistent head that leaves distinct lacing on the glass. The body presents as full and well-structured, with steady carbonation that sustains the foam throughout the tasting.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with pronounced peat and beechwood smoke, layered with malt-whisky character and subtle Scottish peated-malt notes. Secondary aromas of roasted grain and delicate fruit emerge, creating a complex bouquet that balances earthiness with gentle orchard fruitiness.

◐ Taste

The palate opens with robust smoky-peaty character, underpinned by malty sweetness and roasted grain depth. Mid-palate reveals whisky notes and oak influence, while a restrained bitterness (22 IBU) provides balance without dominating. The finish carries lingering smoke and whisky warmth.

◑ Finish

The finish is medium-long with a warm, slightly boozy aftertaste. Smoke and peated-malt character persist gently, leaving the palate dry and reflective of the whisky club's influence.
