Saint Arnold Divine Reserve #4

Full bodied, dark smooth, and sweet as hell. I love scotch ale and this is probably the best I have tasted so far.

Bottle sampled at RBSG ’08. Pours with a dark brown to black body topped by a medium thick, tan head with a good amount of lacing. It’s slightly sweet and malty yet roasty with slight notes of coffee and dark fruits. Medium to full boided and smooth.

Thanks to AMC3000 for the bottle. Pours a very dark brown with a small light tan head that diminsihes quickly and leaves a ring of head around the glass. The aroma is a sweet caramel malt with dark fruits. Decent lacing on the glass. The taste is roasted malt with coffee and spicy finish. Waited a long time for this beer and was definitely worth the wait. An impressive Scotch Ale from Saint Arnold.

Bottle courtesy of mar. Pours dark brown/black with no head. Aroma of molassas, peat and smoke. Flavor is similar, molassas, ash and roasted malts. I like it.
