Apr 25, 2006 Had on tap at brewery. Very dense and chewy with moderate roasted notes. A bit like a porter roast-wise but more subdued. Excellent broad malt profile, very rich and decadent.

Oct 24, 2009 Updated: Oct 27, 2009Thanks to lamas for this 750 mL Champagne Magnum (?2007 vintage) for rating #500. Been cellaring this one for well over 2 years. Poured mahogany with fizzy khaki head with a few splotches of lacing. BIG, sweet malty flavor. Some dark fruit, chocolate, and definitive coffee notes evident as well. Silky texture. Remarkably smooth. Holy fuck, thanks brah!

Dec 15, 2009 Bottled (thanks stoutlover72). Dark ambery brown colour with mediumsized beigeish brown head. Quite big maltyness along with some toffee and alcohol. Quite strong on the chocolate and nuttynesss as well. Flavour is quite much the same in a very fullbodied way. The alcohol is a bit too strong even though this has been kept since I got it in 2006.

Jan 17, 2006 (Bottle 75 cl) Beautiful, dark mahogany with a small, off-white head. Extremely malty aroma with loads of dried fruits. Very full body again with tons of roasted malt and dried fruits - raisins and prunes in particular. Markedly sweet. A lovely, rich and wholesome brew. 160106

Mar 16, 2009 It is hazy, red-brown with small pieces of sediment and a limited head. The aroma has notes of raisin and other dried, dark fruits, malt and caramel. The flavour has sweetness and notes of raisin, prunes, malt, alcohol, caramel, candy sugar and hints of licorice. It is well balanced and the rich malty sweetness makes it very pleasant to drink.

Feb 10, 2006 Dark reddish brown body with a small head. Aroma is chocolate, caramel, hints of oak. Flavor matches the aroma with notes of vanilla (oak) and has a small hint of smoke. Smooth, complex and easy to drink. I’m flying through this glass! Easily the best Scotch Ale I’ve had.

Dec 6, 2008 750 ml bottle Via trade with nbutler11 Thanks. Aroma of wonderfully roasted malt, caramel, dark plums, and somewhat bready scent. Appearance is clear copper color with a thick tan head that lingers and wonderful lacing. Taste is absolutely great. A managerie of flavors melding together making a wonderful brew. Caramel malt, sticky, roasty, a bit of smoke, dark fruits, and lingering candy like flavor but in a good way. Palate is nicely carbonated on the tongue, and aftertaste has a lingering maltiness. Overall, Very nice brew all around. Thanks Nice! Cheers!

Sep 7, 2008 Updated: Sep 8, 2008Magnum via Stefanje the Generous. Pours a deep ruby with hints of sienna. A thick tan clingy head stays put on top of this lovely brew and makes you stick your nose into it while quaffing this malty thick beer. Nose while being malty also has whisky mash tones that make one think of the highland mountains. (can you tell it was hitting me already and I didn’t even know it?)Body is not as full as I thought it was going to be. It is a creamy carmel. My head is spinng halfway thru this bottle. (I am now inbetween the anvil and hammer) Light whisps and mere suggestions of hops peek at the tounge. Lacing is uneven but pretty. (at this point my body shut itself off and forced me into nap mode).
When I woke I actually attempted to call Stefan the generous but my fingers could not work the phone. I finished off the magnum. The beer still had the remnants of a head after the hour and a half nap. A remarkable beer with a hell of a punch. Woo Hoo!
