Oct 19, 2007 Bottle courtesy someone at Tampa RB Gathering. Slightly ruddy-copper color with a thin white layer of head. Moderate caramel aroma and not much else. Same goes for the taste. Just generally sweet - no real peat or spice to speak of, much less malt complexity.

Oct 18, 2007 Bottle... Clear amber ale with a small, fizzy, off-white head. The aroma is rich and vinous with notes of caramel, toffee, port... everything malty and sweet. A touch of buttery diacetyl to boot. Sweet, malty, slightly vinous flavor. Chocolaty and hardly bittered... just enough. Full-bodied and oily with moderate carbonation.. Sweet-mocha finish.

Sep 27, 2007 Bottle (22oz). Clear chestnut pour, average fizzy-frothy tan head. The aroma reminded me of a solid, fruity fall beer - sweet oatmeal malt, cherry, woody herbal hops, nice bit of tartness to those hops, definitely sweet caramel with a hint of chocolate. The taste is woody sweet roast malt, cherry, even a hint of green olive, and noticeable alcohol, but not boozy. Sugary, fairly thick body, a long malty finish with enough tangy, herbal hops to keep it grounded. One of their best beers.

Aug 29, 2007 Travelling around the world with a series of beers...brilliant idea. In execution, this series has not been perfect, but this otter kilter was a solid scotch ale. Dark hazy brown. Very malty but balanced.

Aug 28, 2007 22 oz bottle. Pours a clear dark copper to ruby brown body under a small tight bubbled beige head that faded to a patchy film. The nose is sweetly malty with a heavier than expected toffee character. Very minimal hops, some light alcohol vapors and some burnt caramel. The flavor is heavily malty, but it’s kinda grainy and husky with a thinner than expected mouthfeel. A little nutty and coffee notes emerge on the finish. Not much complexity to the malt. The thinness makes for a rather short finish as well. Moderate soft fizzy carbonation. Overall, another miss for the World Tour as far as I’m concerned. This was too thin and I think that a better yeast would help out some.
