Behind the Beer

The Story of Holy Smoke Scotch Ale

Holy Smoke is Church-Key’s peat-smoked Scotch ale: dark, distinctive and built for slow sipping. Scottish whisky malt brings a true smoky character rather than a flavour added after brewing.

It pours opaque dark brown beneath a thick cap of foam. Peat smoke leads the aroma, followed by roasted malt, dark chocolate, coffee, earth, caramel and burnt brown sugar.

Full-bodied and well carbonated, Holy Smoke feels creamy on the palate before settling into a long finish of smoke, peat and dark malt. It is a memorable beer for anyone who enjoys peated whisky, fireside flavours or a malt-forward pint with real personality.
