Seulement en bouteille de 660 ml. Une bonne écossaise réchaufante avec un arome légèrement épicé. Mais ce n’est pas quelque chose d’extraordinaire!

Ambr orange ale with a light off white head. Wet straw aroma with cranberries. In mouth, like a sweet lager, with light fruity notes. More like a Vienna in mouth. Overcarbonated, unbalanced and way off style. Tasted 28/01/05 at Institut Scotch Ale tasting.

Bottle shared with HogTownHarry, GregClow & tupalev. Pours a clear ruby with a small off-white head. Strange aroma of sour apples, soap, caramel malt and spices -- weird. Flavour of caramel malt, sour apples again and dark fruit. Syrupy body. Not very good, I much prefer their ’Escousse’.

Bottle shared with blankboy, HogTown Harry & tupalev - courtesy of blankboy. Dark copper-amber with a small head. Aroma is malty and a bit soapy, with some ciderish notes in the background. Flavour of mild caramel, bruised apples, and slightly sour woody malt. I agree with the others that this seemed stale, but I’m not sure how much better a fresh bottle would be.

Shared with blankboy, GregClow and Hogtown Harry - courtesy of blankboy. Odd syrup like stale malt aroma. Light brown pour, small tan head. Watery mouthfeel. Stale semi sweet malt taste - How is this a Scottish Ale? Same grainy "Quebec micro" yeast taste. Drinkable, but I was looking for a good Scottish Ale and I got another below par Canadian micro.

Bottle (750ml). Shared with blankboy, GregClow and tupalev - courtesy of blankboy. Poured clear slightly bubbly copper with a small off-white head. Aroma of green apples, sour cider, unsweetened vanilla extract, almost faintly of hard candy. Taste is quite mild, a mash-up of oxidized apple and a generic belgian wit. Mouthfeel fairly thin and syrupy. This one’s perhaps a bit stale - consensus was it was a bit soapy - but not not all that bad, fresher would rate higher.

Aroma has malty, toffee notes, clear ruby, pours a large, but short lived head. Flavour has a malty, butterscotch essence. Sweet, medium bodied, almost crunchy, like maple syrup. Fair.

Bottled. Strong sweet apple aroma. Red copper color, small yellow/beige head that disappears almost completely. Light sweet, light bitter, strong apple and some dried fruits. Little sticky. Bit boring actually. Like a mix of a strong european lager and a belgian ale.
