| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 2/5 | 14/20 | May 1, 2007 Kudos for not being to sweet, a nice dry finish, and the smokey peat flavor. Sadly this had a nasty, strong ash taste, escpecially in the finish and lingering after taste. tennisjoel (951), Shakopee, Minnesota, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Apr 21, 2007 Bought this from the beers of the British Isles sampler pack. I thought this sampler contained the IPA, but unfortunately, it didn’t. The scotch ale and imperial stout interest me the most (on paper), so here goes. Pours a deep red. Aromas are sweet, caramel, butterscotch, somewhat bocklike. Flavor is interesting. Definitely full bodied, very sweet and slightly cloying, although not over bearing. Lightly smoked, which accompanies the sweetness well. Maybe a little sweet, but otherwise, a pretty decent offering.
