courtesy of MadDan and Crazy Silvie - clear dark amber-brown colour under a firm stable beige head; the aroma is slightly smokey and full of toffee; medium to full regualr malt body; creamy mouthfeel and a decent bitterness; some residual sugars in a quite long grassy, caramelish aftertaste - good but a bit simple

ahhh, a decent beer served on tap...at work...(and everywhere else) crap. buttery easy to drink all around ale. lightly malty, sweet and smooth. re rate from a bottle. tastes completely different... richer, maltier and more robust. highly recommended for all day drinking...

The malt was as rancid as a scottish man lifting his kilt in your face, thus the name. I am very disappointed with Four Peaks, seems they focus on quantity more than quality.

Lite clean amber with notes of mild sweet malts in the aroma. Sweet malts and lite hops. Farily smooth entry with a bitter finish.

Bottle: Amber in color, somewhat darker, moderate foamy off-white head, fairly nice lacing, no noticeable carbonation.   Sweet malty nose, slight caramel and roasted malts, very minor smoke and peat.   Sweet caramel/butterscotch notes up front, malty, with a slight touch of peated malt on the backside.   Very subdued Scottish Ale.   Moderate body and mouthfeel.   Clean finish, a little buttery along with the caramel malts.   Not big, but clean, easy to drink, and quite enjoyable.   A very sessionable Scottish Ale.

this was a decent brew that i had at the pepper mad caddies show. Lots of thick malts, but really nothing special. I had an snpa the same night and i thought them to be much of the same.

On Tap. Pours a dark amber color with a nice tan head. Sweet aroma gives way to a hoppy, malty flavor with hints of caramel. Pretty smooth finish makes for a very drinkable scotch ale. It’s simplicity is the only reason for the average score, Just seemed to lack a great deal of character.
