Notes

This is my twist on the Kettlehouse Cold Smoke Clone. I love Cold Smoke and there's nothing better than sitting in The Bulldog Saloon in Whitefish, MT enjoying a pint of it. I researched clones and couldn't come up with a definitive recipe, so I pulled this from multiple sources and decided to tweak it a bit to add a little more roasted barley to give it a bit more "smoke". I will post my results next month once I get it on tap.

I brewed this once so far and it is amazing. Best "American" Scotch Ale / Wee Heavy I have had. I have put it on nitro first and it's great on nitro too if you have the gear.

This turned out so well I have gone through 15 gallons of it already. My friends just love it and I'm brewing another batch today but adding 4 oz smoked barley to give a bit of legit smoke to the cold "smoke". I will update the recipe when I taste it if it's worth while.
