Notes:
This beer is retired; no longer brewed.
It’s OK to be a Wee Heavy Much has been made of the ills of smoking. Jinx thinks there’s nothing wrong with it. For years, he stood strong with his peat-smoked whiskey malt mash. He held his head high when others made fun of his wee heavy physique, becoming a mainstay in Magic Hat’s Night of the Living Dead Variety 12-Pak. People said he’d never attain an Original Gravity above 15.1 degrees Plato or an ABV above 6%. He proved them wrong. Take Magic Hat into the next alellenium. Vote Jinx.

Jinx was served from a 12 oz. bottle with a cute label. In a pint glass, the beer was a rich clear mahogany color, and was adorned with an off-white head that left sticky sheet lacing. The nose was quite enticing with roasty, peat smokey developed malts and a zippy citirc hoppiness. The taste offered delicous smokey/roasty oaky-woody malts that pleased the tastebuds right through to the lightly astringent, zippy citric finish that left residual citrus-smoked roasty malty flavors. The body was appropriately full and the peppy carbonation worked well in such a malty beer. Jinx is a very tasty and well-crafted beer that Id love to have available in my local.
