Smells somewhat skunked. Very very watery mouthfeel. High priced. Lacks hops for an IPA. Very disappointing.

Nice refreshing beer. Head died down very fast (was poured wrong and a had a half glass of foam for only a minute).

This is a big dissapointment and that is mostly because of the label IPA. It has nothing to do with a IPA IMHO. It’s more like a Scottish ale and is the least hoppy McEwan’s I have got. Got it on the export bottle

After being disappointed at not finding this on tap as advertised, I tasted the bottle. Well balanced aroma with, of course, the hops predominant. Hoopy, clean taste with a nice hopos aftertaste. Failed my one minute head retention trial.

dark copper color with nice head that dont last. Aroma is a bit soapy, roasty malt. Flavor is malty and sweet with hints of caramel and raisins.

Thi sbeer was awful. If this is a scottish ale it is so because it was brewed in scotland and for no other reason. A very bland pale ale. Enough said G-rat

Clear copper body topped by medium off-white head. Aroma is light -- light sweet, caramel, slightly skunked. Taste is light sweet, caramel, some earthy, light peat. Watery, light-medium body.

500 ml can. This is the worst IPA I’ve ever had. It lacks bitterness and aroma. Horrible ! !
