May 18, 2008 A midly sweet scotch style ale, rich in caramel and nutty character. The head is big and frothy and dark brown. And it stays in the glass for a while, it doesn’t dissipate quickly. the newest member in the family of Titletown brew.

May 6, 2007 Appearance of a deep dark brown with light off-white head that fades quickly. Aroma of smoke, rich malt, and faint hops to prevent the beer from being so one-sided. Lightly carbonated and creamingly smooth it is an excellent representation of the style.

Apr 24, 2007 The mystery growler at the Cellars tasting. This is a scotch ale done right, but perhaps a little too light. It has a nice smoky aroma, but not too much smoke, as well as sweet malt and rotting fruit. Flavor has a little more smoke and lots of malt sweetness, a fairly sweet beer overall. It could use more alcohol perhaps, and maybe more malt, but definitely a success. Black beer poured from a growler. Low carbonation.

Apr 16, 2007 Updated: Apr 23, 2007Second stop during Wisconsin Trip #2. Straight on tap at the brewpub, pours an opaque dark brown with an off-white head that fades slowly when near room temperature. Aroma picks up smoked grain, caramel, molasses, and a touch of chocolate. Taste has some light carbonation and smooth texture. Finish is smooth and has a slight apple aftertaste. This brew is quite a sleeper.
Apr 23 Update: A growler of this brew was brought back to the Twin Cities and was shared among 17 guests on April 20. An unanimous thumbs UP vote by everyone attended.
