Some tingy acidity in the aromatics as well. Rich, creamy body. Soft carb. Rich, dense, fruity, chocolatey, smoky mid-palate. Chocolate and smoke finish. Awesome!

Nov 4, 2007 Bottle shraed by beastiefan2k: Deep brown/amber with a tan thick head. Rich malty aroma. Peat, plums, tobacco, and vanilla wood undertones. Velvety feel. Richly malty; nice and earthy with an underlying sweet touch of maple and toffee. There’s an overall great earthiness in the late palate of peat, tobacco, and mild hints of smoke. Great stuff!

Nov 4, 2007 Shared by beastiefan2k - this one was brilliant - dark brown beer with a purple tint to it - rich aroma, with a wonderful mixture of peaty/smoky smells, and strong dark fruits - soft, silky mouthfeel - dark chocolate and plum are most apparent at first, as the beer begins fairly sweet, but it dries out a bit and the peat/smoke takes over a little more - quite earthy, with warming whiskey character - this is what I want all my scotch ales to taste like.

Nov 3, 2007 Bottle generously shared by beastiefan2k. Deep brown colour. Sweet malty aroma, some earthy and plummy sweetness. A touch of soft peatiness with a light brininess as well. Quite balanced. Very drinkable. Dried plums and chocolate. Lovely beer.
