A traditional Scottish ale brewed with an emphasis on the malt characteristics. Lightly hopped, as is true to this style of beer, with fruity malt aromas and a toffeeish mouth feel.

Bottled. A deep red beer with a tan head. The aroma has notes of dusty hops, malt, caramel, and some fruits. The flavor is sweet with notes of malt, caramel, and some spices, leading to a dry spicy finish, where also a note of nuts appears. The alcohol tickles the tongue. Thanks yespr for sharing.

50 cL bottle. Pours hazy dark brown with a huge, creamy and tan head. Aroma is mild roasted and slight breadish. Sweet caramelish and slight breadish malt flavoured. Sweet roasted breadish malt flavoured finish - could counterbalance from the hops.

500ml bottle from Sainsbury. Attractive clear dark brown with very thin beige head. Some malt on the aroma. Sweetish malts, some crystal in here I guess then. Bit of milk choc. There is a little musitness that makes me think that the bottling isn’t as clean as it should be. It’s a malty bitter, with some good and poor malt flavours at the same time.

A Mes rate. Bottle from Shamansburys.
Chestnut brown with a thin off white head. A nice blend of chocolate malt and pleasant grassy hops. Good toffee notes, delicate smoky character and a good trade off between sweet and bitter. I’m inclined to agree with Sigmund, this is much more like a Scotch ale than a bitter. Faint floral hints in the finish. Interesting and enjoyable.
