Feb 1, 2005 A dark copper color with a light head. Looking at Boto’s comment it seems they have improved on it over the years. The palate is a little thin but not terribly so. A very malty and vinegar type flavor but somehow it works. Loads of caramel and molasses in the flavor. A slightly bitter aftertaste. Nothing great but not too bad either.

Jan 26, 2003 Updated: Feb 28, 2008Draught in Chattanooga: Very light in flavor and body for a Scottish Ale. Faint smoky aroma, thin malt taste. Hardly any hops. I asked the bartender if she had heard anyone else "inquire" about the lightness of this. She agreed that many others had thought that it was a little thin, but she also said that the first batch of a new beer often turns out that way. Hopefully it will be more substantial later.
Re-rate: Still a little on the lighter side, but much improved. An easy drinker.
