Lord_Corkscrew (544), Ronco Scrivia (GE), Italy Aug 29, 2008 Finalmente dopo tanta curiosità, ecco che al Duca mi imbatto nella Fraoch, una ale scozzese aromatizzata con l’erica piuttosto che con il luppolo. Le note agresti nell’aroma, che è fantastico, avvolgente, dolce e speziato, si diluiscono in un abboccato un po’ più generico, tuttavia con particolare sentore erbaceo e finale più secco del prevedibile. Ottima. Berserkir (26), California, USA Aug 17, 2008 Aroma is malty, light fruit. Taste is very one dimensional. Malt with a floral aftertaste. This makes a decent "hot day" beer. Easy to drink. DandyWolfFloyd (225), Jim Thorpe, Pennsylvania, USA Aug 11, 2008 Aroma is sweet matls, with scant detectable hops, sweet fruits, suggesting berries, and figs. It’s color is a golden translucent color, akin to a cider, with a thin white collar. It’s flavor is a light sweet fruit and malt, with berries. The palate is like a champagne, light dry, w/ moderate effervescence. Kalli (407), Falun, Sweden Aug 4, 2008 [Archive]
Strange but interesting and nice caramel-mint aroma – perhaps cinnamon. Chewy, cloying, toffee with mint. Sweet yet balanced. Very intersting. It’s beer but not as we know it. iammarc (177), Inverness, Scotland Jul 27, 2008 An interesting Scottish ale, one of the better ones produced here. Very herby aroma and taste to go with it. Bought from local oddbins.
