Dec 28, 2008 Love this brew and out of a can wow..Classic flavor and dead on for this style. Malt dominates the flavor and just enough hops to round it out. Highly drinkable and easy to drink . Recommend

Dec 23, 2008 On tap at flying saucer. Has a dark ruby color with a small frothy tan head. The aroma is a smoke malt with raisin. Decent lacing on the glass. The taste is a sweet fruit with a light malt. A good scotch ale from oskar blues.

Dec 19, 2008 Can. Pours thick dark brown with a medium tan head, good lacing. Smells of apple, coffee, molasses, and maple syrup. Thick body. Cloyingly sweet and sticky, with fruity malt and toffee flavors. Has some grassy hop notes and a slightly crip edge, but not enough to cut the sweetness.

Dec 2, 2008 Pours a cloudy amber brown with a nice creamy head. Sweet dried cherries, molasses, and raisins in the aroma. Creamy smoked malt flavor, brown sugar, molasses, and dry finish. Chewy palate at just the right thickness. Well balanced enjoyable beer

Nov 29, 2008 12oz can. Pours a deep brown almost black with a khaki colored head that is mostly diminishing but lasts the whole beer. Aromas of chocolate, roasted malts, coffee, and some hops. Flavor is malt forward, with chocolate, a bit of coffee, and a nice bitter finish.

Nov 28, 2008 Pours a dark chestnut brown with a two and a half finger creamy/frothy head. Smells of chocolate and roasted [almost burnt] coffee. You can taste the chocolate right away, with only a slight coffee flavor at all. Very smooth and velvety. It feels the same way chocolate milk does but with a slight amount of carbonation. I could drink a bunch of these but if I finished the whole 6er I would most likely end up in a ditch somewhere trying to hail a cab while crawling. This beer is very smooth! Overall a really great choice!

Nov 27, 2008 12oz can. Darker brown with a beige head leaving lasting foam. Caramel, toffee, and lightly hoppy aroma. Big, malty flavor. Molasses, toffee, piney hops and light vanilla mix smoothly. Medium bodied with lighter carbonation. Quite drinkable. When you want malt, this is not a bad option at all.

Nov 26, 2008 2008 Can - Pours dark and opaque without being too heavy...aroma is sweet molassas malt and some light roasted grain...thick mouthfeel without being too cloying or dense...flavour is a nice balance of burnt malt, fruit, brown sugar, lightly biter and a great alcohol kick that was perfectly hidden...the most fun out of a can yet...
