(12oz bottle, courtesy of travita) Pours a clear amber body with a small beige head. Aroma of roasted malt, light peat, bread, toffee, and caramel. Flavor of caramel, roasted nuts, toasted grain, and raisins.

This dark amber hued 80/- has some biscuity and toasty flavours amid the requisite caramelly and crystal maltiness.

on tap-pours an offwhite head with dark amber color. Aroma is sweet. Taste is dark sweet fruit, roasty, malty. Not my taste.

A reddish copper ale with a thin off white head. In aroma, nice nutty malt with light vanilla and cinnamon notes. In mouth, a light nutty and grainy malt, sweet and smooth, a bit light bodied, but decent. On tap at brewery restaurant, April 10th, 2011.

UPDATED: JUN 5, 2003 This beer rocks! It's crystal clear with a beautiful copper hue. Small, fizzy, khaki-colored head which is fully diminishing and leaves no lacing. The aroma is extremely rich with huge notes of English milk chocolate, butter, caramel and English toffee. Toasted cashews arise in the nose as an afterthought. The flavor is very rich and malty up front. It's like drinking a fizzy, liquid Cadbury's Caramello bar. Balanced perfectly on the backside via a very nice hop addition. Lightly medium-bodied with a creamy yet fizzy mouthfeel. Very lengthy, crisp & clean finish with lingering notes of chocolate and clover. Rose pedals at the very wee end... strange, but true. Interesting and tasty Scottish Ale! World Class beer and one of my favorites. Highly recommended for MaltHeads!!!

Draft at the source. Hazy amber color. Aroma of caramel and toast. Taste is slightly burnt butterscotch.

On tap at the 2004 Kennett Square BF. Poured a medium amber color with no head. Sweet aroma and tastes. Caramel and toffee.
