(bottle - 22 oz) Dark copper color with a creamy looking tan head. Malty and sweet aroma with some light smoke, dark fruits, and some molasses and chocolate. Flavor is light with some sweet malts at the beginning with some light hops and a little nutty flavor at the end. A bit watery, but quite nice.

Sep 30, 2008 Aroma has brown sugar, lots of malt, mahogany, tiny tan head. Taste is fine malt, butterscotch mmmm. Sweet, almost crunchy, very drinkable. Quite good. Thanks Torontoblue.

Sep 25, 2008 This pours a nice dark and rich amber with a finger tall beige head. It has an inviting smell of malt and caramel. There is very little carbonation in this easy sipping scotch ale. It feels smooth on the tongue with a bready dryness on the roof of the mouth. There is a very faint hint of bitter dark chocolate with a mostly cereal taste. This was quite good for what it is and I would feel comfortable recommending it to anyone that likes Scotch Ales.

Sep 25, 2008 22 oz. bottle. Pours a light leather color with a thin, off white head. Slight aroma of piney hops and maple syrup. Flavor is nice, with a good thick caramel malt taste. Also, there is a bit of smokiness lurking in the background. Finish has a touch of hoppy notes, but quickly gives way to some sweetness. Interesting beer.
