Bottle. Deep ruby color, thin white head that disappears quickly. Aroma is subtle malt, pine, and caramel. Flavor is pine, caramel, and molasses. Pretty smooth and tastey with a nice alcohol warmth at the end. This is a good scotch ale.

Deep brown color with burgundy highlights. Nice tan head. Aroma of sweet malt and chocolate. More of the same in the taste. Nice caramel flavors. Long lingering finish with notes of chocolate and a bit of spiciness. Alcohol noticeable but not overly so. Tasty.

Bottle. Pours a dark brown with a thin tan head. The aroma has a little malt with some chocolate coming through. The flavor was nice and malty. An excellent balanced beer that was surprisingly easy to drink. The alcohol is hidden well.

Pours dark brown / copper with off-white head that goes down fairly quick. Aroma has light breadiness with caramel and a bit of toffee. Medium mouthfeel with some oily aspects. Moderate soft carbonation. Taste has lots of toffee and caramelled malts - very rich. Finish has more sharpness and a bit of alcohol presence. Nice enjoyable beer.

Poured a dark brown-black with mahoganey edges. Head was minimal and lacing only fair. Aroma was buttery with some roasted chocolate present. Flavor was malty rich and sweet with much of the same with a medium and satifsying mouthfeel (very little carbonation).

A very strong tasting ale, with a sweet coffee taste. It has a very heavy body and is a filling beer, like a meal in a bottle. Not something that I could really enjoy.
