Belhaven Brewery's Wee Heavy

I've been avoiding this one after the first two Belhaven beers I tried, but their Twisted Thistle and Scottish Stout were good so I decided to come back to them.

Pours like a bock. Deep almost opaque copper with a light and fizzy tan head that quickly fades and huge carbonation. Smells malty, like a bock too.

I like it. Very low bitterness that is more of an aftertaste than anything else. It's not a sexy beer. No huge flavor or bitterness, but a solid, malty beer that is an ale version of a bock.

Not a whole lot to say about it. Good, solid beer. I'd even rather have it than many bocks.
