Commercial Description:
A full bodied, unfiltered dark amber ale, brewed in the tradition of the Scottish highlands, is characterized by is its malty sweetness, and very light hopping. One of only a few beers that are full-bodied enough to "float" our Black Cat Stout in a black and tan.

Art of Beer Festival 2004: Has a clouded amber color with a small tan head. Smell is of sweet malts. Taste is also malted and finishes sweet. Overall a pretty good beer.

Amber in color with a small off-white head of foam. Malty sweet aroma. Flavor is malty,slightly sweet and finishes with even more malt.

Candy sugar in evidence…Assertive caramel malt…But too easy and shallow…

Nice cloudy ruby appearance with a decent head. Thick and chewy Scottish ale with a light but tasty peat smokiness and heavy caramelness. Tasted some apple wood as well? 22oz bottle was not enough.
