Aug 1, 2008 weak nose of stale hops & fermented fruit. Alcoholic, spicy and slightly syrupy flavors but the aren’t especially appealing. There does seem to be a bit of bitterness behind everything which is interesting coming from scotland, but really...i don’t think Scotland was meant to brew ipa’s.

Feb 7, 2009 Bottle (batch 207) from Plaza Liquors - Pours a clear golden color with a 1/2 finger thick off white head. Lacing is a nice coverage of tiny spots. Aroma is toasted doughy malt, fruity esters, and floral hops. Flavor is sweetened toasted malt, esters, and a lighter hop presence than I expected. I get a hint of metal in the finish. Medium body. A decent beer, but lacks a little in all departments.

Oct 31, 2008 Bottle from Bev’s for Less. Pours a lightly hazed medium golden color with a soapy white head that became non existent. Nose was very sweet and fruity. Flavor was sweet with very light bitterness.

May 16, 2009 Batch 1, Best Before 03/03/2009. 22.4 oz. bottle. Pours a hazy gold with a moderate linen white head that lasted through two-thirds of the glass and left very nice lace webbing. Pleasant aroma of malt, pine and citrus, although none of these is particularly strong. The flavor is similar with moderate amounts of malt, pine and citrus. This is certainly a mellow DIPA in terms of aroma and flavor, but is enjoyable. A bit pricey though at $13.50 for a bottle, so I’m not all that likely to have another go at this one anytime soon.

Nov 9, 2009 Bottle at home. BBD 31/12/2008.
Hazy yellow with a small head, some lacings. Aroma heavy malty (caramel) and hoppy (citrus notes). Flavor heavy sweet and bitter, despite that smooth. Full body. Delicious.

Sep 2, 2008 Tasting - Perfect Pour. Gold, thin white head. Soft aromas of citrus and cedar wood warm to a light swirls of caramel. Tangerine and tropical fruit flavors ride notes of toffee from start to finish. Light to medium bodied, soft carbonation, bittersweet finish. A mellow D-IPA that seemed to work for me...

May 15, 2008 Light golden in color with a light head. Smell is hops, citrus, and earthy. Taste is really hopy, bitter. A little bit like cleaning fluid. Ok but could be better.

Dec 7, 2009 Cask @ Coles, Buffalo NY. Lighter amber golden, aromas of sweet malts, fruity hop presence to boot. Marmalade like sweetness up front. floral notes, nice bitterness in the finish, nicely balanced that could use more bitterness.
