Volume 6: Traditionally, the Scotch call this beer 90 shilling. At Terrapin, we know it as “90 Shelling.” Magnificently malty, this 90 Shelling Scotch Ale pays tribute to the full bodied ales of Scotland.

Skyview Tasting 2.5. Courtesy of Skyview. Dark red color with no head. Strong malt and caramel aroma. Solid caramel flavor, but with a floral and American (read: citrus) hit. Not bad, but given the name of the beer, I was hoping for something not made with citrus or pine.

Bottle from TBS....thanks matt... Poured into a snifter. Dark red in color, small head that stuck around.. Malty brown sugar, carmel aroma...Taste is the same, Malty, brown sugar, caramel and some light toasted malts. Not bad at all. Texture wise it is average. Not heavy or light... Overall a nice beer on a cold night.

Deep brown with a hint of red small white head and lace. Light brown sugar and toasted malt. Abv, semi sweet roasted malt with a medium light bitter finish. Medium bodied with good carbonation.

A light brown color with minimal head. A light malty flavor that’s a bid dry. Faint sweetness. Not much aroma.

( 22oz bomber thanks to ericandersnavy) Pours chocolate brown with light tan bubbles. Nose of sweet toasted biscuit malt. Taste of toasted malts, nicely balanced with no roasted/off lingers. Body is a bit watery, but tastes great.

22 oz. Bottle. Poured a brown color with thin head. Pleasant aroma of malt. Flavor was slightly spicey with a note of hops in it. Good beer. Recommended.

22 ounce bottle from Sam’s Quik Shop in Durham, NC. Pours a clear red color with a medium head. Fair head retention and lacing. Nice caramel malt aroma with a fairly strong earthy hoppiness. Faintly smoky. Taste is caramel, raisin, and faint leafy hops. Medium-full bodied. A worthy beer to commemorate my birthday today.
