Jul 23, 2007 Cloudy orange beer with a frothy beige head. Aroma of spices, oak, yeast, cooked fruit. Medium body with ample carbonation. Flavor was less a Scotch ale than a Belgian and left me greatly disappointed.

Jul 19, 2007 Pours bronze with a thick dense beige head that had nice retention. The aroma has lots of oak, tight caramel malt, light sweetness, dry vanilla, smooth spices and toasted / roasted aspects. Medium body with a smooth syrupy feel with a decent semi-sharp carbonation. The taste has a beautiful blend of scotch ale and oak that is very even. The oak dries out a lot of the cloying effect of many scotch ales while still displaying a strong malt presence. There is some light spiciness as well. The finish is rich, yet somewhat dry, with hefty toffee malt. This hides the 10% alcohol very well. As it warms the spices seem along the allspice / cinnamon line and the Belgium yeast starts coming out. A very good and complex brew.

Jul 19, 2007 Tasted 7/17/07. 750ml bottle. Dec 2006 vintage. Hazy with a golden brown hue. Spotty head. Floral peppery perfumy nose. Full bodied with good bitterness. High effervescence. Mild sipper. Honey graham cracker notes. Citrus acidic hop finish. Peppery spicy flavor. Good high gravity session, if that makes sense. Money brew!
