Has a stron taste of roasted malts, but soft plum and smoke is also hidden there. Very sweet. Emil (6074), Copenhagen, Denmark

| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Mar 5, 2005 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. joss (3687), Garching b. München, Germany

| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Sep 7, 2004 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. Boystout (900), Chisinau, Moldova
| 2.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 10/20 | Aug 13, 2004 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.
