Feb 4, 2008 Updated: Jun 2, 2008Didn’t get a chance to pour this one...Took a peek in the can and it was a dark brown w/ tannish froth. Great caramel malt taste w/ some hops on the back end. Nice thick texture in the mouth. Great beer that I’d like to taste again...this time in a proper glass.

Feb 2, 2008 From can : Pours a very dark, non see throughable black, with a very small and fast diminishing offwhite head. Big time caramel malt nose, with some chocolate poking through. Wonderful taste of caramel and chocolate malts dancing on the palate, with hops bringing it up the rear, with a slight bitter bite. Roasted aftertaste. Medium body with a very smooth feel. No real taste or hint of the 8% ABV. Very nice beer.

Feb 2, 2008 draft @ Taco Mac. I wish the bartenders at Taco Mac and other places knew not to use frosty pint glasses when serving good beer. anyways, after letting this one warm up a bit I got some nice malty chocolate aromas... the body was full of flavor and carbonation. Very smooth over the sides of the palate with some caramel. Nice finish, a touch of alcohol.

Feb 1, 2008 Can. duh. Dark thick head, almost opaque. Chocolate, malty, evervescent nose. Taste is creamy, a bit carbonated with chocolates, malts, sweet candi sugar taste. A bit thin on the finish but overall a wonderful beer.

Jan 28, 2008 12oz can. Aroma of roasted, smoke and spice in the mix. Dark bodt with cramy tan head. The creamy head formed a halo on body a good caramel with a hint of spice bitter in the background for flavor. Smooth on palate. About the third time trying to rate this beer. First one disappeared, second time the cat jumped on computer table and that ended up with the cat having to lclean half the pint off her body. Now hope this one stays put.

Jan 28, 2008 Can@Home. Chocolate and coffee aroma. Ruby color, beige fine head, very nice lace. Sweet, light bitter, chocolate, licorice, coffee, roasted, soft mouthfeel. At first I thought it has a nice complexity and wonderful mouthfeel. But halfway the glass I found it too sweet and flat. So I downgraded my scores but a 3.8 is still a very nice beer. Thanks Yngwie!

Jan 27, 2008 12 oz. can - pours a very dark and thick amber with tanish head fading to the edges; rich aromas of dates, malts and caramel; drinks with a touch of alcohol, but mainly creamy mix of malts and sweetness; very slight dry finish

Jan 25, 2008 Wow! Some magic in a 12oz can. Was not sure what to expect with the name and all.
Pours dark with a light bronzed head. Nice mouth full, warm rich malty flavor. Some smoke and chocolate caramel sweet blends keeps the Alc% in check. Will look for this again, love these Scotch Ales!
