Oct 8, 2009 mix pack.
Pour is brown with an almost tan but mostly offwhite head. Aroma is nutty with some caramel and dry fruitiness as well as some light chocolate. Flavor is more of the same, except the chocolate becomes roastier and drier. some light nutty and dark dry fruit flavors are present as well.. pretty nice, enjoyable

Sep 13, 2009 Bottle. Medium brown, slightly reddish. OK head, moving down, but some remaining. Earthy aroma, amber malt, yeast, honey. Lightly roasted malt, honey, caramel, coffee. Very nice, a bit sweet, but dry overall. Dry, roasted, hoppy finish. Long lasting dryness. I liked this a lot. Pretty well balanced, medium body, lightly carbonated. Very rich and also dry and drinkable.

Aug 17, 2009 Scottish Ale? Fully expected a dopplebock because of the name... Anyway...
12oz bottle from the local Shaw’s. Pours a hazy but translucent brown body with a thin half inch of off-white head that leaves some nice lacing. Chocolate and caramel and toffee notes as well characterize the aroma. Chocolate, roastiness, caramel sweetness, just a tinge of peatiness. Medium-bodied with ample carbonation. A pretty easy-drinker. A fairly simple, straight-forward Scottish ale, but a good drinker for a winter night.

Aug 9, 2009 12 oz bottle. Couple of years in the closet I think. Hazy dark orange with a solid blanket of firm off-white head. Nose is lightly sweet malt. Bit of spiciness, ie clove, allspice, cinnamon. Taste is light and sweet. Not much to it. Mouthfeel is light and weak. Nice little bit of maltiness on the back end. Not bad, but nothing to rush out to buy.

Jul 22, 2009 Bottle. Poured dark reddish brown, off white head. Nice malty semi sweet aroma. Malty flavors with a subtle hop character that makes gives this one great drinkablilty. Basically if I were sitting in that chair that the bear is and I had a nice fire going in the winter, this is what I’d like to be drinking. Nice winter beer.
