Malty, caramel notes in the aroma Medium amber color. Soft smooth texture. Malts, a little earthy. Lightly sweet. Easy drinking but not a session beer. Sits very nice on the palate.

Dec 22, 2009 Lovely chestnut brown colour. Mutued aroma of ryebread and a little dried malt extract. Soapy texture, malt driven. Puckering dryness with a faint toasted note, also some treacle syrup in there too. Strange one, its taken nearly the whole bottle to work it out. Just cant get passed the soapyness ( and yes, it was a used glass)

Dec 9, 2009 Bottle from Utobeer. Very decent ESB. I mean its got a mid chestnut colour, thin lasting beige head, aroma of malt and some american hop (so not a Scottish Ale, since when were American hops grown in Scotland), good solid malts in the mouth and then a slightly hoppy juicy finish. It’s a decent ESB. Not a Scottish Ale. At all. Enjoyable.

Oct 20, 2009 Bottle Pours an amber body with an off white head. Very malty with some earth y tones, a bit like soil sout and dirt. Bitter with a earth y finish. Didn’t care for this much.

Oct 8, 2009 malt nose, mild bitters well balanced against some malt flavors that are tame compared to any other 90 shilling i’ve had, very dry (again not typical for style), yeast flavors seem about right, seems small for a 90 shilling, a tasty well balanced ale, but not really much of a scots ale

Sep 15, 2009 A nice, dark amber pour into my pint glass yielded very little head, some lacing. A very mellow beer, tastes like Boddingtons with a little more roasted grain and malt flavors with a buttery finish. An absolutely delightful beer.

Sep 13, 2009 saw several people in a couple of mountain towns in CO drinking this so had to try.
amber color with slight lacing.
palate was thin; flvor was a mix of several things with a good bit of non bitter hops at end.
interesting beer, would like to try another.
