Jan 25, 2009 Bottle. Pours a caramel brown with a fluffy off-white head. Aroma is malty with caramel, lemon/grass and a hint of fruit. Flavor is toasted malts, caramel and some notes of earthiness with a slightly bitter finish.

Nov 19, 2008 (Bottle). Strange and unusual. Not as sweet as most Scottish ales. Very complicated flavor profile; malts, fruits, caramel, earthiness. I’m conflicted about how well it all hangs together. Distinct ripe fruit and malt aroma. Dark copper body, light brown head.

Oct 12, 2008 Tasted on tap. Aroma is caramel with hints of pipe tobacco. Caramel and butterscotch light sweet flavor with a weird apple skin finish.
Bullit (1300), Glasgow, Scotland
Sep 28, 2008 Amber colour, small white head. Aroma has mainly caramel malts. Flavour is sweet malty, and that’s basically all.

Jul 22, 2008 Verre de dégustation, provenant d’un fût, au Vermont Brewers Festival 2008 (Burlington, VT). Arôme: Odeur de malt caramélisé. Apparence: La couleur est ambrée foncée. Présence d’un mince col mousseux et d’une fine dentelle sur le verre. Saveur: Goût de caramel fruité avec une pointe d’houblon. Courte durée de l’arrière goût. Palette: Le corps est moyen avec une texture huileuse. Faible effervescence en bouche. Légère présence de caramel en arrière goût. (Rating #1839)

Jun 22, 2008 22oz bomber from a trade. Seriously this is now my third or fourth infected McNeills beer. Do they intentionally infect their beers?? Well I did watch American Beer and after seeing the "great" brewing and botteling facility they have there it’s no wonder they can’t ship an uninfected beer. I have one more McNeill’s to try but I’m pretty sure of the outcome already. Avoid this brewery unless you lke throwing your money away.

Jun 5, 2008 Pours light brown with a nice sized creamy head. Really not too much on the nose except for some caramel. Nice mouthfeel -- fairly thick and rich. Other than this not too much is going on in the glass.

May 24, 2008 picked up at the Co-Op in Burlington. This is a malt and caramel play,taste and aroma, and very drinkable for what it is. Caramel yellow colour with some head. Above average mouthfeel. Lunchtime sessionable.
