Pours a beautiful dark amber with an off-white, quickly dissapearing head. Has a stron taste of roasted malts, but soft plum and smoke is also hidden there. Very sweet.

Bottle. Amber colour with a big off-white head. Light sweet roasted malty aroma and a very sweet taste. Medium body and a sweet light dry finish.

Brought from Scotland, 500ml,typical brown Belhaven bottle.Painting of the poet on the label. Quite a nice looking ale poured into the imperial pint mug.It isdark amber with a luscious bubbly/frothy light tan head.Great lacing down the glass as I drink. Aroma is of malts,quite nutty. Nice tasting ale,its quite "clean" compared to most Scottish ales,meaning the malts arent quite so upfront sweet this seems a more balanced Scottish ale..the malts being somewhat driven back by some hops. Long lasting tobacco like after taste ( nice pipe tobacco). This is quite highlycarbonated compared to your typical Scot ale..thoughit works rather well on the palate. I found this to be an excellent drinking beer, not overlly complex but supremely enjoyable.

500 ml bottle. Golden amber colour with a frothy off-white head. Smoky, toffee, and lightly nutty aroma. Caramel, brown sugar, bread, and lightly smoky flavour. Medium bodied and smooth. About halfway between Belhaven’s Scottish Ale and Wee Weavy - almost seems like a mix of the two.

Light brown coloured with thin head. There are hints of smokiness and good rusty notes, but as a whole it’s too sweet and light. Not the best Belhaven.
