| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Sep 22, 2007 Can. Pours a nice deep dark brown colour with a medium head leaving a good lacing. Sweet mildly roasty caramellic and prune alco aroma. The flavour has plenty of roasted caramel, softly roasted malt, dark fruits, alcohol and slight chocolate. Sweet roastish bitter finish. Now this is the very best can beer I have ever tasted. More like a good weak barley wine than a Scottish Ale. bierkoning (6103), La Tropica, Netherlands

| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | Sep 23, 2005 on tap-pours a tan head that is thick and foamy and stays that way, color is black with a reddish tint. Taste is a nice deep roasty, creamy, malty. Mild for what I’ve had with Scottish ales before, which aren’t usually to my taste. A good occasional beer. Rastacouere (5565), Montréal, Quebec, Canada
| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 14/20 | Feb 14, 2005 Deep brown, quick fading coke head. Smoky milk chocolate aroma, slightly peaty, butterscotchey yet you can smell that this will be a bit watery. Not very flavorful in mouth, mostly roasty and bready with a sweet corn syrup part that I don’t dig. Well controlled sweetness level still. Light body, low carbonation. Okay, this was the best canned beer I ever had and the source for a few laughs over the canned conditioned concept.
