Bottle; pours a dark brown; very dark. Medium, light brown head. Aroma was, as expected, malty. Toffee, roasted malt, yeast, fruit and a slight amount of smoke/peat. Some caramel began to emerge with time. Palate was solid, not spectacular. Flavor had a lot more smoky presence than the aroma. Also, some caramel and some fruit. Tasty, but perhaps too simplistic.

Bottle. Pours dark brown with a tan head. Aroma is smoky and roasted, with toast, coffee and chocolate. Medium body. Flavor is roasted malt with loads of chocolate, as well as toast and caramel. Nice, very drinkable.

Bottle. Pours a reddish brown with a quickly dissipating tan head. Aroma of malts, caramel and molasses. Taste of malts, molasses, caramel and some chocolate. Well-balanced, warm and no alochol edge despite the 9%. One of the better Scotch Ales I’ve had.
