This was a strange beer experience, because this transformed as it warmed, and not for the better. So my notes are based on my initial reaction. Pours deep reddish brown with an off white head. Sweet berry and malty aroma. Medium bodied with softer carbonation than the other Pike beers on tap, and slightly thin texture. Dark caramel-like maltiness, that is sweet and countered by some tobacco and subtle smoked peat. Short finish. sneagrams3 (1761), St. Louis, Missouri, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 2/5 | 13/20 | Jun 5, 2008 The Dan Journal #184. 12oz bottle. Tasted 6/3/08. Hazy yet relatively clear. Ruby hue. Sparse webbed off-white head. Hoeny and sugary aromas. Touch candy cherries. Great nose. Medium to full bodied with an off smokey tart flavor. Char. Sticky coffee acidity. Solid scotch ale, but too much smoke. Bitter hop finish, but once again, the smokey character dominates and in my opinion, detracts. Dissapointed. 21iceman40 (1731), vienna, West Virginia, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Jan 29, 2004 Dirty brown with a tint of gold with a small dieing white head. Apricot malty aroma. Fruity malt body and it just may have a slight aluminum foil sourness to it. jake65 (1725), Williston, North Dakota, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | May 5, 2006 Pours a nice color of amber with a few hints of darker brown, average sized head disapears quickly. Taste is malty, also with some fruit, roastiness, and light hops balance things out. Has a thicker feel than I expected. Quite good overall. joet (1709), Fulton, California, USA

More hoppy and dry than is typical of the style, this is still interesting in its own right. Some peat and malt in the nose. Moylan’s will lift your kilt much higher and with a more pronounced West Coast flair. SudsMcDuff (1706), was CapeTown,SA-now Houston, Texas, USA

Houston,TX ::::: funny, has a very british malt profile, light caramel and odd biscuit malt (very english ale) like flavours ... low but sturdy headpool ... a very simple beer (no scotch here) ... stormy seems to be feeling better ... "if you buy it, women will have sex in your backyard" .... pours a slightly murky marmalade colour... no city noise, no flesh eating ogres, no pollution, a real easy drinking brew that would be good for a beginner but falls horribly short of a real craft brew ... one of pikes lesser efforts...freebie from Pablo, thx!
