TURDFERGUSON (1594), Carrboro, North Carolina, USA Jun 25, 2008 Can from Charles. Muddy brown with a small off-white head. Nice aroma of caramel malts, chocolate, a little smoke. Sticky, icky mouthfeel with more caramel, chocolate, brown sugar, a bit of hops, and smoke. This is much better than I remember it. I wouldn’t want to drink more than a couple pints of this in a session, but it’s still very good. A bit underrated. One of the best scotch ales I have had. doublebock (196), USA Jun 24, 2008 Strong burning maple alcohol malty aroma. Deep dark color with thin lace. Solid malty flavor though a bit flat. Great smoky burnt finish with subtle hopiness. Best beer from a can on the market. carl4beer (391), Fairfax Station, Virginia, USA Jun 23, 2008 12 oz can. pours dark brown and has a off white head. aroma is caramel and a hint roasted malt. mouthful is smooth and creamy with caramel and a bit of cocoa and brown sugar. very nice and amazing stuff from a can... oskar blues is the bomb in a can!! badlizard (2324), Berkeley, California, USA Jun 22, 2008 On tap at Pizza Port and over hyped. Dark brown with no head. Chocolate roasty malt aroma. Smooth chocolate and orange peel taste with a roasty semi dry finish. AtlAggie (131), Atlanta, Georgia, USA Jun 22, 2008 On tap at the Brick Store. Just a lovely, comforting ale. Deep, dark brown with a thin and creamy head. Malty aroma which is a good indication of flavor. Rich and malty, with chocolate, caramel, and hints of molasses all blending beautifully, but it doesn’t overdo the sweetness. Just a hint of smoke on the finish, does a good job of hiding the alcohol contained within. Will definitely try again. mcox90 (617), Wilton, USA Jun 22, 2008 12 can. Pours a clear brown cola color with a small white receding head. Nose is malty & sweet. Mouthfeel is smooth, creamy & moderately carbonated. Taste is sweet malt, some caramel w/ hints of chocolate. Very nice easy drinking brew. daknole (2800), Plantation, Florida, USA Jun 21, 2008 Nice beer and from a can, I love it Pour a nice deep brown with a very small head. Aromas of delcicious malts and grains. Flavor is smooth and fairly complex. I like this. mjs (1445), Helsinki, Finland Jun 18, 2008 (Can at Pikkulintu on 2008-06-15) Deep reddish brown colour. Clear. White small quickly disappeared head. Lots of malts in nose, and some chocolate, too. Full and sugary palate. Salty liquorice, malts, hints of syrup and quite amount of chocolate in taste.
