Oct 16, 2009 One of those I’ve had a ton of times, just never rated. Pours a dark brownish ruby color with a beige fluffy head. Aroma is caramel, pancakes, maple, cherry, and a hint of coffee. Flavor is caramel up front, cherry, butterscotch, smoke, and a slight alcohol bite. Quite delicious. Creamy mouthfeel.

Mar 11, 2008 Pours a medium brown color (like a scotch), with bitter sweet aroma, with hints of chocolate. Sweet malty flavor with that smokiness they mention at the finish. Excellent beer.

Mar 13, 2008 Pours black with just a slight cream-colored head. A dark coffee malted aroma. A lot of coffee in the flavor as well. Molasses, caramel, and a hint of semi-sweet chocolate. A nice burnt bitter in the finish, but just enough to balance things out. Very solid mouthfeel as well.

Feb 17, 2009 12oz can. Another great offering from Oskar Blues. Pours a deep mahogany dark brown with nice ruby highlights. Minimal chocolate head. Smell is tons of chocolate and caramel and a slight dask of citrus. Taste is very rich with a huge heavy mouthfeel, a little to heavy perhaps. Chocolate and caramel malts take center stage with a nice bit of smokiness and a slight hop tang at the back. Slight metallic taste is the only thing that keeps this from being as good as the Belhaven Wee Heavy. Very taste and CHEAP.

Jun 4, 2009 not a big fan of scotch ales, but this one i really liked. lots of malts with some smokeyness thrown in. very heavy beer but i suppose most scotch ales are like that. its a cheap beer and thats definitely a plus and unexpected for a beer so high in alcohol!

Jul 1, 2009 This is my "go-to" Scotch Ale for good reason. Easy to find, not overwhelmingly expensive, and quite tasty. Toffee aroma gives way to chocolate, brown sugar, and kind of a milky flavor. Malt is sweet and like other beers I’ve had from Oskar Blues, maybe just a little too overpowering. This one is definitely in regular rotation for me.
