Appearance: Deep amber, thin beige head, solid lace, rich malt aroma and dry carmel malt flavor, just enough hops to keep it in balance and from showing any sweetness, a lot of peat shows up in the finish after just a bit of warming, the carmel starts coming throuqh at the end of the second pint.
Overall: The first runnings of the mash was boiled with brown sugar to create a carmelized sugar character.

| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Apr 25, 2006 Pours a clear copper amber with a thin ring of white head. Nice, sweet toasty caramel and mild peat aroma. Starts semi-sweet, lightly earthy and caramel malty with good authenticity and viscosity. An enjoyable Scotch ale. BückDich (4853), McCall, Idaho, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Apr 5, 2004 Dark amber with sticky head and lacing. The aroma is nutty and sour. The flavor is caramelly & sweet with a smooth finish, not too bad. goldtwins (4084), Nesconset, New York, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Apr 5, 2006 Draft @ the downtown location. Poured a clear dark golden amber color. The aroma was sweet and fruity. A little grapey. Malty caramel flavor with notes of cola and fruity. Actually reminds me of a Dr. Pepper. Medium bodied. Sammy (4030), Toronto, Ontario, Canada
| 1.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 3/10 | 3/5 | 3/10 | 1/5 | 5/20 | Mar 10, 2006 Neutral aroma and slighty dark appearance. Lacey. Sour off-taste dominated over any maltiness,if peaty and smokey then just too old, not finishable. Suttree (2734), Knoxville, Tennessee, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Feb 22, 2004 Brownish red, with a frooty malt aroma. Rich and sweet at the start, then has a earthy flavor, too. Seems a bit lacking somewhere. Sampled at the Great Atlanta Pub Crawl, 2004. aracauna (2391), Georgia, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 5/5 | 15/20 | Feb 16, 2003 Dark leathery brown big creamy head. Mouthfeel is impressively creamy. Good a sweet malty. Might have benefitted from a little peatiness but a great dessert beer. Just enough citric hop bite in aroma and flavor. Shag (1923), Chattanooga, Tennessee, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Feb 22, 2004 Reddish brown appearance. Nice malty aroma. Flavor is malty with some cherries, grapes, and spices. Somewhat of a nutty backbone. Pretty good just not great.
