Caramel Malty and sweet aroma. Dark brown with very little head that quickly dissipates upon pouring into the glass. Taste is slightly sweet, bitter, and sour all in one. The body is light to medium, with soft carbonation and a thin and sticky texture. Overall the beer is good for the most part, and for me someone who is not a big fan of Scotch Ales this was a big step up for me. A nice new beer that I just randomly beer, though not worth the money that I payed for it.

355ml bottle - shared by Les Quebecois in Lithuania - thanks!
Hazy-to-cloudy orangy brown. Very full body. Rich soy malts. Sweet, yet hopped to be slightly drying in the finish. A sipper - comfy chair, fireplace, and pipe recommended.

Bottle, pours dark brown, the aroma is nice it has some bourbony and some scotch and the flavour is full of life, the taste is quite nice, really interesting stuff

Bottle 341ml. Pours dark red, with low beige head. Aroma is of home ketshup (sweet), fruits, and wild, sour. Taste is of old yogurt, yeast, kind of reminding Duchesse de Bourgogne, but smoother. Cherries, nuts, wood? Creamy mouthfeel. Not my style.

Bouteille 341 mL. Brun-roux foncé sans mousse. Odeur de malt et de gâteau aux fruits confits. Peu de carbonation en bouche, avec goût prononcé de mélasse et fruits confits sans être lourd. Bonne longueur en bouche.

from le Mondial de la Bière 2011, Strasbourg - cloudy dark brown beer with a little long lasting beige foam; nice lacework; complex and very malty aroma with notes of caramel, hazelnuts and spices, hints of vanilla and plums; full-bodied and very tasty, some sweetness and a decent tart bitterness on top of a fair carbonation; slightly dry and long spicy malty toffeish aftertaste with warming alcohol notes -- an absolute beauty

Bottle. Dark brown colour with a beige head. Aroma is milky sour, caramel, alcohol. Flavour is malt, alcohol, caramel, nuts. Ordinary beer.

341 ml bottle. Fluffy white head, dark orange color. Caramel malts, cinnabon and oak. Pretty sweet, still, balanced by a higher than average saltiness. Low carbonation. A decent brew: Yes. Worth 6,99$ ? No.

#1029 Bottle; Nose is leaves, mediumsour malt, weak chloride, wood chip, feel is mediumwatery, carb is medium, taste is sour plum, some wet hops, cooked vegetables,

341 mL bottle courtesy of my 2011 Secret Santa, JulienHuxley. Thanks! Pours a hazy dark red color with a large frothy tan head. Good head retention. Big fruity notes in the aroma including strawberry, citrus, candied citrus and berries. Faint toffee notes. The taste is tart fruits. Berries, strawberry, plum, citrus, caramel. Medium bodied. Some booze. Interesting, but not quite what I’m expecting from a Scotch Ale.

Looking now at some other ratings of this and I’m not getting any of the notes others raters are, so I assume this bottle is off. Sad. At least its still drinkable.

Une découverte. Arôme de malt enveloppant, de grains fraîchement moulus et présence d’une arôme d’alcool subtile. Houblonnée sans exagération, très bien balancée, de loin une des meilleures bière que j’ai goûté. Elle s’apparente à une belge forte. Dépasse mes attentes. Une bière excellente made in Quebec!
