Apr 3, 2007 Bottle. Pleasant scotchy-nose with plenty of sticky fruity malt, some caramel, and English hops. Light roast/smoke. Dark ruby body with a thick, lacing, creamy tanned head. Body is light and slightly prickly, predominately bitter with a deft touch of sweetness occasionally flittering by. Warming. Light hops and caramel in the finish with a dry and hops aftertaste. A bit too bashful, but a good one.

Feb 24, 2007 This ESB pours a deep copper red color from a 500 ml bottle. Large sized white foamy head. Aroma is malty, nutty, earthy and sweet. A medium bodied ESB/bitter. Malts are caramel. nutty and sweet. Hops are herbal and earthy. Lively carbonation. Nice balance. Kind of a cross between a scotch ale and an ESB. Mouthfeel is full. Finish is clean and smooth. Aftertaste is slightly bitter.

Feb 17, 2007 Bottle (500ml). Via trade with jerc. A very deep clear ruby with a large lasting foamy tan head. Lightly bitter and leafy aroma of soft hops and light roast malt, a little chocolate and earthy overtones. Taste is VERY tart - sour fruit, funky earthy hops, dark roast malt with cocoa shell bitterness - light body, almost burnt-bitter mouthfeel, mild carbonation if that, and a carbonized aftertaste. Pretty nice!

Jan 28, 2007 Bottle. Pours dark coppery ruby colour with a huge tan head. Aroma is malty, with some nut and some coriander. Mouth is a little bit lively, malty, slightly sweet and just a touch of alcohol. Palate is watery, but does leave a burnt malt taste. Easily gulpable. Quite ok.
