| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 15/20 | May 22, 2009 This scotch ale isn’t my cup of tea. It isn’t as henious as Sam Adams Scotch ale which is a good thing. I will not be trying this one again. Had it at beerfest.

| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Apr 11, 2009 2009-04-10. Hazy red brown body, fluffy beige head. (3+) Aroma is fairly alcoholic, dry malt and caramel with a good dose of smokey peat. Flavour has a a lot of alcoholic overtones, dry caramel, mild peat is restrained but pervasive. (6+) Smooth average plus palate. Not bad but really not to my tastes, as I would like more sweet malt and a lot less smoke. Bottle shared by GregClow topherh (943), Kearney, Missouri, USA

| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Jan 26, 2009 16oz bottle. Dark, murky but still a little transparent, brown. Smooth, simple and malty. Not unlike a lot of authentic Scottish Ales. Delicate hop balance, but overall it’s sweet and quite drinkable. Impressive medium bodied mouthfeel for a beer of it’s strength. Quite nice, I’d like to try it on draft. can8ianben (913), Pasadena, California, USA

Flavor is toffee, raisins, and charred wood. Very drinkable! ABV is subtle but present. I like it! It reminds me of Cally’s Smokin’ Scottish which I used to enjoy in Harrisonburg, VA.
