Westward American Single Malt

The malt shines and gives a bold, straightforward sweetness through the entire palate that is a bit one note. There is a mustiness at the tail end that comes from the ale yeast that is certainly unique, though not something I was crazy about. Not a whole lot of complexity. All that being said, still an enjoyable dram that I wouldn’t turn down if offered again.

Heavy apple on the nose. Taste is very rich, mostly malt and barley. This is very well done but may only appeal to certain preferences.

Smells exactly like Koval (zero proof) single malt - like apple cider/juice (awful! in my opinion). Taste is packed full of beerish malted barley with a strange earthy aftertaste
