Oct 17, 2004 I wish I could give this one 749 points for the can. Seriously, some of us camp and hunt and fish and are generally forced to bring Busch light or something along to these events, because that’s what comes in cans. Thanks, Trader Joe’s, for carrying this one.
Oh, yeah, and there’s a remarkably solid scotch ale inside the can, too. Three thumbs up. Mahalo.

Feb 26, 2004 Deep brown with a touch of ruby, OK but fading head. Can. Strong roasted aroma, quite appealing in nature. Flavor is malt focused, with more definite roasted notes melded with caramel and a bit of earthiness from the hops, seemlessly integrated. There is a touch of smoke here as well. Nice take on the style.

Sep 3, 2005 Strong caramel, toffee, brown sugar, prune and tobacco aroma. Deep brown-red hue with a small but creamy, off-white head. Tastes much the same as it smells. Very light bitterness in the finish. Medium-full body, velvety texture, soft carbonation.

Apr 20, 2004 Updated: May 13, 2004Pours a clear deep amber color, and is topped by a good light brown head. Sticky, malty, candied notes waft from my glass as I pour. When I go in for a deeper sniff, I get toasted malt notes and a hint of roast malt at the end. Wow, this has a good solid mouthfeel and a nice rich body. There are lots of malt flavors here (caramel, biscuit, quite chewy actually). Perhaps a hint of roasty smoke in the finish. This beer is also subtly fruity with notes of raisins in it. This is a damn good beer in a can, certainly the best I have had up to this point. The hop perception is appropriately quite low, with only a hint of balancing bitterness in the finish. This is damn tasty, for any beer, and it really hits the spot right now.

Jan 13, 2009 Poured cola like with a nice foamy beige head. Aroma is smoky and like a nice pipe humidor. Flavor is subtle, with caramel, roast, and light pepper. A bit thin bodied for the style, but finishes very clean.

Jun 22, 2005 Can. Pours nut brown with a tan spotty head and creamy lined lacing. Sweet caramel malt and toffee with brown sugar and hop aromas. Sweet brown sugar and caramel malt, toffee flavor with a slight hop finish. Fizzy and medium bodied palate.

May 13, 2007 My friends are getting worried, because my favorite beers are from a brewery that cans its beers. What a ballbuster of a beer! Pours dark and thick with minimal head. Smoky peat in the nose, very dry. If you like single malt scotch, you will like this beer. Wonderful complex flavor with nice malt to smooth things out. While the pale ale from this brewery is the more popular beer, this is a really tasty alternative. Prost!!
