Lately there has been a trend among my out-of-town friends to bring me beer when they pass through Austin. This needs to continue. One of the latest comes from Alexandria, Virginia's Port City Brewing Company. Tartan Ale, their seasonal springtime effort, is a scotch ale, and a very tasty one to boot. The beer pours a dark amber with a minimal head and light carbonation. As for the aroma, it's pretty malty with hints of fruit that translate well to the flavor of the brew, a combination of said malts and accented fruit with a sweet caramel or almost a dark chocolate feel. It's lovely and very easy to drink. Thank you Tammy.
