I don’t think there’s supposed to be a citrus flavor here. Otherwise, mild and schwarzbier-ish. Scottish Ale meets Flemish Ale. jcwattsrugger (5528), Florida and, New Jersey, USA

| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Jan 18, 2005 Updated: Feb 15, 2006On cask at J.J. Bittings. Tried a second time with a new batch. Thin but creamy head of fine bubbles. Light carbonation. Light malt aroma with a hint of roastyness. Also some chocolate malt and a bit of peat. Kind of weak aroma. Color is very nice dark mahagony red. Flavor is typical for a scottish ale. Roasted malts, peat and a touch of smoke. Pretty dry mouthfeel. Not as sweet as most scottish ales. Soft in the mouth. Lingering roasty, smoky aftertaste. Pretty good though. pivo (2537), Germany

I don't know if I will ever know the difference between an 80 and a 90 Shilling beer. Inflation? Pours a dark brown color with a medium thin light beige head. Strong malt and caramel aroma. Medium-bodied and a little smokey, with a nice malt presence. There is also a tiny bit of hops lingering around. The finish didn't seem to keep up very well but overall I liked this one.
