| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Mar 28, 2009 Bottle, 7%. The aroma starts off a little farty, turning vinous and roasted. Clear dark brown colour. The flavour is quite roasted with some lactic notes. Farty roasted notes in the finish. The lactic aspect is a bad idea in this one, I think.

| 2.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 4/10 | 2/5 | 10/20 | Dec 11, 2008 22 ounce bottle purchased at Nugget in Davis. Aroma is nutty, metallic, with some light roasted choco hints. A bit of peat, but it is subdued. Mostly transparent cola-colored body with a decent, strong off-yellow creamy head and nice lacing. Hmmm...this has a weird sweet flavoring with a husky, chewy roastiness in the middle. Some buttery diacetyl is present. Light, thin, astringency to finish. Not so good.

| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Oct 28, 2008 Clear dark brown with a fleeting tan head. Nutty malt aroma with sweet molasses. Medium body and smooth. Nice flavor is earthy sweet molasses with a dry roasty nuttiness. Not too bad. Wiseblood (658), Clarksville, Tennessee, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Aug 15, 2008 Dark brown with a tan head. Malty-sweet smoky aroma with some peat. Strange bittersweet combo of flavors-not like any other Scotch ales I remember-but it worked for me. Lots of sweet caramel, chocolate and coffee flavors. Finishes kinda dry and smoky. The smoke & peat flavors hang around & take over the malt flavors. Different. yespr (12404), Copenhagen O, Denmark
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Aug 6, 2008 Updated: Jul 13, 2009From tap at Pizza Port, San Clemente and from tap at the brewpub. Pours dark brown to black with a lacing white head. Roasted malty aroma. Light fruity and malty dense flavour. Lingering fruity and malty finish. Simple yet tasty. Gypsy19 (650), California, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | Jul 11, 2008 A different beer in many aspects. The aroma is sour, almost of spoiled dairy, but in a good way. Flavor is very chocolatey and of cappucino. Not as good as I’d hoped for, but satisfying nevertheless in its own odd way.
