Apr 7, 2007 This is from my friend Paul who gave it to me a while ago. Poured with a soda-pop kind of head, foaming up and then right down. No lace. Caramely sweet nose. Brightly sweet malty, caramely, toffee flavor. Perhaps a tad overcarbonated. On the humdrum side.

Apr 5, 2007 Updated: Apr 7, 2007Pours a very pretty deep garnet/brown with a very nice head. I was not impressed with this pne the first time around - then I figured out that it was too cold. I let the second bottle warm up a bit - and that made all the difference. Lots of sweet malt. with a tad of smokiness. I’d like to try this on tap.

Feb 11, 2007 Nothing very special here, actually a tad disappointing, although my expectations weren’t high in the first place. Poured an orangey-brown color with a nice initial head, weak retention and lacing. The aroma was roasty caramel. The flavor was nuts, bread, caramel, roasted grass (not peat, not smoke), sweet dark malts, thick sweetness, and some spicing. Lots going on, but all malts and too sweet. Quaffable? Is that what the description says? Not really.

Feb 5, 2007 Poured a slightly hazed brown amber color with a thin off-white head. Malty but not very sweet. Earthy notes. Malty flavor with some caramel. Again semi-sweet. Some peaty notes.

Jan 3, 2007 12 oz bottle. Clear purple brown with a pocked tan head. Concord grape, brown sugar and a touch of peat. Taste much the same. Grape soda gets tart, sour. Mulberry drying. Light carb, a little thin.

Jan 3, 2007 Draft at the Gettysburg location, July 2006. A dark amber beer with a thin beige head. The aroma is sweet with light notes fo alcohol and caramel. The flavor is sweet with light notes of caramel and berries, leading to a dry end, that also has light notes of metal and alcohol.

Nov 25, 2006 Draft. Borwn burgundy color. Looks deceptively like a rootbeer without the carbonation. molasses, coffee, toffee hints in taste but far too thin body for my expectation of a Scottish ale. Not the worst and has some strength in flavoring but needs to shore up the rest of the presentation.
