| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Jun 19, 2007 Bottle. Extremely malty aroma, faint smoke and peat with light fruitiness. Copper-amber body with a rocky tan head and medium-strong carbonation. Crisp, slightly sharp taste, caramel malt dominant. Peat recession, but the fruitiness remains. Medium body with lingering caramel aftertaste and a faint touch of sourness. Solid and balanced, a good but not great one. Thanks, Jake! TheLeadDog (101), Kent, Washington, USA

| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 2/5 | 14/20 | Apr 7, 2009 On tap at Pike in Seattle. Caramelly in color. Aroma was pretty light; with some caramel and peat, but not much. Flavor was smoky, peat, caramel. A bit harsh on the palate, which was a bit detracting. Still it was ok.

I think some more Scotch-like flavors would become more present as it warms. Pours a hazy gold. Lots of malted grain, some caramel and a decent amount of hops on the palate. Medium bodied with good carbonation. buzzoven (333), Japan

Poured a dark amber hue with a foamy bubbly head. There’d better be some nice alcoholic sweetness on the nose to any good Scoth Ale and this one did not disappoint. Mouthfeel was smooth and tingly with apple, peach, scotch, malty flavours cascading over the senses genlty and settling me into a nice state to slumber like a bear.
