Aug 9, 2008 12oz can shared with Matt7215 and his brother, Matt’s can (thanks Matt). Pours a nice dark mahogany, with a small off white head. Aroma is really really nice! Major peaty malts, like big time, and not much else, but what’s there is so damn good smelling you don’t really need much else. Flavour is like a punch in the face with peat, but for some reason you welcome the hit! But in all seriousness, huge peaty, chewy, delicious malts with a great full body to it, pretty smoky too. Maybe my sensory perceptions were off, but I would have bet money that this was only 5% abv, it hides the alcohol THAT well. Man, seriously good stuff here! Maybe it really appeals to the Scottish in me. I wish I could get this all the time around here!

Oct 26, 2009 12 oz can. I’m drinking this beer out of the can (at the moment), so I can’t comment on appearance. Flavor wise, beer sort of reminds me of Pepsi. Caramel, little chocolate and roasted malts are present. This is a really tasty beer, no matter what vessel it is served in,

Mar 17, 2008 Pours a dark chestnut brown with thin tan head. Nice malty aroma with a nice nutty presence as well as some chocolate, caramel and hops. Flavor very similar to aroma with a lot of roasted nut maltiness, chocolate, caramel, toast and dark fruit with a nice hop finish.

Dec 6, 2007 Can. Pours a wonderful dark brown, with pretty tan head - reminded me of cappuccino froth. Aroma of chocolate and malt, repeated upon taste with some roasted-ness in there. Solid finish. Delightful.

Apr 7, 2008 Updated: May 13, 2008Dark brown pour with a red tint. Nice white head. Smells like sweet chocolate or cocoa. Really intense chocolate malty aroma. Some grain and yeast undertones as well as sour fruit. Delicious creamy chocolate malt flavor. Like chocolate milk. Smooth and creamy. Slight bitter hoppiness and a tiny bit of alcohol on the finish. Good body.

Aug 11, 2008 Hellava good beer, great balanced scents of chocolate, coffee, hops, brown sugar pop tarts, nice aromas and well married together, deep dark brown-black body with slight lacing, flavor is just as advertised in the nose, goes down really well and too easily, just a great quaffer, palate is creamy, almost oatmeal stout catagory, once again very nice, alchohol, it’s too easy to drink, alcohol is not even noticable, that can be dangerous for such a tasty brew... I want a 22oz bomber of this stuff!!!
