Slight sweet smell escapes, mixed with the air of high alcohol.
Dark body, medium.
Taste is very malty/mollasses texture that tastes sweet and goes down smooth. A very satisfying ale.

| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Apr 23, 2006 Deep mahogany pour with a very small head. Aroma is slightly stale, licorice, rice, sweet malt and caramel. Biscuity, stale, mineraly in the mouth, with noticable alcohol. I had this beer from 40F all the way to room temperature and it never really found a sweet-spot. Tubbfan (144), Joliet, Illinois, USA
| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 4/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Apr 21, 2006 Completely opaque black/brown color with an antique-white head. Nice lacing, but head and lacing quickly dispersed. Aroma of malt and a hint of vinegar. Smooth, sweet flavor. No biting crispness or alcohol. Only a hint of warming alcohol burn in the aftertaste followed by a sweet tartness. tommy8768 (120), Litlle Compton, Rhode Island, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Apr 21, 2006 Pours a cloudy dark brown with a fast evaporating head. Has a molasses type taste. I thought scotch ales would be a little more smoky tasting but not this one. Also has a slight metallic tinge. Still very good SoLan (1423), Orlando, Florida, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Apr 18, 2006 Very dark brown, insignificant head. Nose is sweet, roasty, peaty, with a bit of smoke. Same flavors with more smoke and more peat. Medium/full, balanced body. Excellent considering the quantity they produce.
