Nov 15, 2007 Notes from the night say this exactly: Dark copper. Light chocolate aroma. Chocolate, smoke, and leather in the flavor. Good Shit!

Jun 25, 2003 This one is a toss up for me. I used to prefer McEwan's, but this one is really winning my favor. Full bodied with out being overpowering, balanced and hoppy, with a smooth creamy aftertaste, slightly smokey and complex in the finish, but his just leaves you wanting another pour.

Apr 27, 2003 Updated: Jun 9, 2003My impression is the exact opposite of the Commercial Description. I thought it was very light bodied for a Scottish. It was nicely tart, and pleasently fruity. Finished a nicely smoky.

Aug 30, 2000 Updated: May 10, 2003I think I have sampled at least 4 or 5 beers that call themselves “Kilt Lifters”, well in my humble opinion, Pike’s is the best. Also why is it so hard to find a “Good” Scotch Style Ale?
A beauteous orange to amber color, the head prodigious in size, creamy in texture, a nice light tan in color and the residual lace a thick and sticky sheet to meld with the glass. Sweet malt is the nose, fresh and inviting, the start ambrosial, malt laden, and the top rich in its feel to the palate. Finish has a delectable acidity, the hops spicy and pleasant, dry aftertaste and a real treat.

May 23, 2007 Bottle from someoneorother. This actually has a very enchanting, unique, subtle aroma. Grapefruit sweetness, cinnamon, and cherry pits abound, with great complexity and depth. Doesn’t really hold up, though. There is a definite soda-pop kinda flavor straight out, and the finish is malty and chewy and a little bland.

Apr 3, 2008 [1097-20080216] Tap @ Pike brewpub (Seattle, WA). Toasted bread yeast aroma. Clear, dark amber red body with a medium-lasting creamy white head. Fruity roasted malt flavour with a sweet finish and eventually noticeable alcohol. Medium body is thick. Nice malt.

Jun 25, 2004 Bottle pours reddish golden, small white milkish head, very light carbonation, with spotty lacing. Aroma of malts, some toffee or caramel, and light smokiness. Forwardly smokey, slighty peaty/malty, with some semi-sweet character. Finishes with a slight bitterness, but moreso a malty semi-sweet caramel flavor. This is a rather easy to drink, non-offensive Scotch Ale. Slight smokey on the aftertaste. Fairly tasty this is...
