Jan 11, 2007 12 oz bottle, dark brown brew with small tan head and medium lacing. Initially this has the aroma of dirty socks with smoke damage from a 5 alarm fire with notes of roasted caramel and citrus. Watery roasted coffee flavor slight bitterness with a bit of a burn but doesn’t last. Roasty malt aftertaste. This Scotch/Porter is an acquired taste, not very drinkable, and I love Scotch ale & Porters I guess just not mated.

Dec 18, 2006 Bottle: Rich, dark brown color with a small tan head. Aroma is coffee and roasted malt, taste is true to the porter style with roastiness, coffee, cocoa, and a caramel like sweetness. Nice full body and easy finish with a lingering roasted malt touch.

Dec 14, 2006 Smooth, drinkable, delicious. Black opaque. Not much head. Very slight citrus flavour. I’m gonna let the next one warm up a bit before drinking. Is this bottle conditioned? I’ve got some sediment here.

Dec 4, 2006 Smell of scotch, chocolate cake, coffee, caramel, molasses, whoppers, brown sugar, hops and some oak. Listen, I bought this at Murry’s Wine and Liquor for only 99 cents and the smell of this beer is well worth it. You have to have it sit out a little, so it can warm up. The taste is not that great. Taste of malt, hops, coffee, chocolate and scotch. It has a huge water down flavor. I was so excited to drink this after I smelt it and was let down by the watery taste.

Oct 2, 2006 Bottle drank at the RFD with Ungstrup
So I’m drinking a nearly local beer to me on the east coast, so what?! Poured a black color with tan head; light lacing. Nose of light roast, milky dusty hop and some sweet notes. Average astringency. Dry, acidic and not that appealing. A bit of chalk and more roast as it goes down. I don’t understand the name on this one.

Sep 18, 2006 Updated: Nov 22, 2006dry, smoky, burnt bitter coffee and earthy leafy peat flavor with a medium or more body and full mouth feel. Flying Dog has the only other scottish porter I’ve tried and I do not know if this is a mimic but it is similar and Steelhead is much better, perhaps because it is heavier and leaves out the lemon sourness.
