Mar 24, 2006 Bottle. Pours a nice amber with a nice white head. Roasted malt aroma is nice. Very tasty, but a little too smoky. A nice find at the beer store, but I won’t be buying this one again.

Mar 18, 2006 500ml bottle at Blå Rock Cafe in Tromsø. Deep amber colour. Small tan head. Slightly hoppy aroma. Carbonation is too much present. Medium caramel and honey in a rather straightforwardly flavour.

Mar 17, 2006 Dark golden, not quite amber in color. Creamy head, lingering. The smell has aspects of malt, and very slight hop. medium-light carbonation. smokey taste, it was surprising to me. good lacing. never saw the smoke/roast flavor coming. nice touch. Touche Kroger Grocery hellhole, this is a fine beer.

Mar 16, 2006 Bottled. Clear, golden to copper beer with a medium, off-white head. Rich, malty aroma with some smokiness. Creamy mouthfeel and a malty, caramel flavor with too much smoke in it. Normally, smoke is ok, but this smoke feels like when you get out of bed the morning after a large party with lots of smokers present. Nice bitter finish. (060316)

Mar 9, 2006 Pour is dark orange/amber. The head is a nice white lacing. Aroma is twangy with some smokiness. Not what I expected from an ESB at all. This is almost a scotch type ale?

Mar 1, 2006 Smells quite nice - hops w/that creamy ale aroma. A lighter appearance at the bottom than the top, it doesn’t really have the creamy ale look or taste, just aroma. This is a bit heavy than it looks or you first taste, but certainly one of the best Scottish ales/ESBs I’ve ever had.
