Aroma of thick caramel and alochol. Pour was an inviting dark brown with a 1 finger off white head. Taste was full and strong...dark fruits and caramel with sugary undertones and a not too strong alcohol burn. Mouthfeel was medium thick and nicely carbonated. I can’t believe I waited this long to try this classic. jbuzz (661), South Milwaukee, Wisconsin, USA

Aroma is caramel, figs, earthy spices, and slight alcohol. Flavor is an exquisite blend of the same components, and more: wood, whiskey, vanilla, slight smoke? Palate is extremely smooth and balanced; just enough dryness to balance all the complexity. keepersj12 (810), Sicklerville, New Jersey, USA

A great dark mahogany with a nutbrown edge. Head is small and has a nice beige colour that supplements the liquids colour. Aroma is malty sweet with english toffee, oak, roasted malts and a slight smoky edge. Falvour is caramel based with dark dried fruits, pine, oak and a little vinious. Low carbonation giving it a good oily mouthfeel. mgumby10 (1858), Jupiter, Florida, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Jun 23, 2007 Pours a really cool looking deep, deep reddish maroon. Almost looks like wine but with a big well retained light tan head. Very fruity, malty aroma. Cranberries, cinnamon, malts, and cherries is what I pick up in the smell. The taste is fruity sweet, alot of brown sugar and dark berries really stand out. Easy drinking for a scotch ale, goes down pretty nice. Really good session beer for this style. jb (1055), Rochester, New York, USA

Chocalate malty palate along with caramel and toffee and a bit of candy cane - finishes dry. Nice.
