May 16, 2007 A difficult beer to shoehorn in to any category. There is a vinous character to the aroma. Lightly bitter, with an herbal quality and light malt. It is fairly thick, and reminds me of a Scotch ale.

May 12, 2007 smoke is the first aroma followed by pine-citrus. it pours with a thick off white head. lacing is sparse and clumpy looking. The initial mouth feel is delicate like a semi sparkling wine, then creamy when the caramel flavor comes through. this is my first foray into an imported ipa and I expect it to be an atypical example of ipa because it’s from Scotland and I was told to expect it to be different. It’s a combination that is very pleasant to drink to me. I like it and rate it pretty well because I like it, not because it’s a good example of IPA.

May 12, 2007 Sampled at Cellar’s Wine & Spirits IPA Nite in St Paul, MN. Pours a clear tan/brown brew with an off white head. Sparce lacing. Aroma is roasted barley malt, smoked peat, caramel, and a touch of apple. Taste is smooth with hint of nuts, caramel and flowery hops. Finish is a medium body and a sweet aftertaste. A terrific nut brown ale but missing the hop bite I am used to in IPAs.
