A malty brown beer, smooth. A very light touch of sweetness and a very light touch of hop in the finsih. Okay but one dimensional.

1/30/2008: Broughton Old Jock pours a clear golden brown color without any head or crown. The aroma is a bit dry, but does have caramel and fruit. It has some "beery" flavor and a very slight nuttiness. This medium-bodied beer is a little on the sweet side but still decent overall.
200 mL bottle (6.7% Alc/Vol). Rating #243 for this beer.

Jul 26, 2009 500ml. Cracked this after the Enumclaw Highland Games. That’s about as Scottish as things’ll probably get for me this summer, so here we go with the Broughton. A very nice sweet beer. Pours a crystalear, rather dark amber with serious garnet overtones. It’s really a beautiful deep beer-ad color. Decent little coaster of tan mousse up top, doesn’t hang around. Adequate stringy lacing. Big fruity sweet malty doughy nose. Kind of an uncooked christmas cookie effect--raisins, cinnamon, but mostly caramel and toffee. Creamy medium body, not much carb. Caramel, toffee, cinnamon, raisins on the mid-palate. Mild sweet finish, kinda sticky and creamy. They are friends to the barley farmer, those folks at Broughton.
