Belhaven Twisted Thistle IPA



Scotland is a place I would love to visit one day, probably for scotch more than beer in this case.

But it turns out they do good beer too.

Enter Belhaven Brewery, one of their beers ended up in a mixed 6-pack I had with my slightly large beer stash.






On first glance it had a very nice fruity aroma to it, but on first taste it hit me, it was a surprisingly rich taste that mellowed as I got through it.

This American-style IPA uses loads of different hops hence the flavour profile.

Scotch... insert 'drool'

At 5.6% it is a bit strong but overall a nice beer.

Belhaven actually means ‘beautiful harbour’, this is their 300th year at work, making it Scotland’s oldest brewery.

There is a lot of history in Scotland

I’ll be on the lookout for more of Belhaven’s beers on my travels.

Cheers,

Dave
