| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Jul 17, 2007 Updated: Jul 18, 2007Rated 7/17/07. Dark mahogany color with red edges when held to the light. Thin tan film for a head that leaves behind a patchy lacing. The aroma is a very interesting mix of roasted malts, chocolate, and smoked wood. The flavor follows that same pattern, with a bit of caramel mixed in and a smokey, salty, bitter finish. There is a distinct Earthiness to this beer. It smells and tastes like something that came straight from nature, untouched by man. Very interesting, and totally unique to anything I’ve had to date. I will definitely explore this one again. drewbeerme (2299), Chicago, Illinois, USA

| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Feb 28, 2007 12 oz can from ross... Oskar Blues Old Chub pours is dark brown and fairly opaque. It has a lasting brown head that is quite dense and leaves lacing rings with each drink. The aroma is malty, fruity, and a little yeast. As the beer warms up, some roasted malt becomes apparent in the aroma as well. The flavor is malty and slightly sweet. Roasted malt and some chocolate undertones add to the complexity and depth of the flavor. There is a little alcohol and bitterness in finish. The body is medium-full and is smooth on the palate. A sensation of warming alcohol enhances the overall experience. Overall Old Chub is a well crafted Scottish Ale. Miksu (2231), Jyväskylä, Finland
