phishpond417 (1861), Madison, Wisconsin, USA Aug 19, 2008 Pours an amber colour with no head. Again, a slightly watery beer, very light- aroma is of soft subtle oak and perhaps a hint of whiskey, but barely detectable in the taste. Carmel, toffee and green apples in the taste. Skyview (4007), Papoose Jct., Minnesota, USA Nov 23, 2007 On draught at the brewpub in Chilton, Wisconsin. Pours a dark coppery amber brew with a creamy off-white head that slowly dissolves to a fine film and white ring. Aroma of sweet caramel malt, a touch of candi sugar, flowery hops and some toffee. Taste is medium to full bodied, light carbonation with a good balance of sweet caramel, hop bitterness and alcohol. Finish is where the alcohol come through and I’m guessing around 7.5% abv. The finish aftertaste has a slight mild bitterness that even retains some of the caramel flavor. Though it has a slight bitterness for a Scotch Ale, this is still a pretty decent brew. BCAR (216), Naperville, Illinois, USA Oct 11, 2005 Dark amber in color. Sweet, roasted flavor . Nice scotch. Don’t know the abv, but seems a little stronger than most of Bob’s brews. Long-lasting finish with a noticeable hop presence.
