I am really liking this brewery. Everything I would want from a Scoth Ale- tons of malt in the nose and on the tongue, with a hint of peatyness.

Aug 26, 2008 Mahogany with small tan head. Nice scotch aroma, sweet maple smoke. Flavor starts sweet, somewhat thin bodied for the style, malty as expected, with coke flavors and root spice.

Aug 26, 2008 Dark brown pour with rocky, light brown head. Heavy malt aroma of roast, peat and smoke with notes of molasses, chocolate and nuts. Flavor is sweet and moderately bitter — a nice balance. Medium body and average carbonation. Somewhat watery texture, but still smooth enough. Bitter finish and pleasant warming from alcohol.

Aug 25, 2008 750ml bottle-pours a big foamy to rocky light brown head and murky black color. Aroma is wood/grainy, peat/roasty, dark malt-chocolate/slight anise, earthy, slight acidic, dark fruit—prunes. Taste- the tar and ash dominate then the characteristics from the aroma comes out. Thanks to Steve LAK.

Aug 15, 2008 750 ml. Opaque black with a large crunchy-spongy head that lasts for the duration. Aroma is cocoa, licorice, and earthy char. Flavor is earthy cocoa, raisin, anise, molasses, caramel, graham cracker, marshmallow. Heavy body does a nice tightrope between watery and syrupy. Smooth and lightly carbonated, and dry enough.
