Bottle. Pours a translucent amber with big fading khaki head. Aroma is very creamy, with some butter, and a hint of vanilla. Flavor is a little like a lightly buttered biscuit, with caramel notes. Extremely nice velvety smooth medium full body, with a slight acidic twinge. Very enjoyable, and easy drinking.

Pours a deep copper with a frothy head that quickly collapses. Very nice crystal and biscuit malt aroma. Taste is very full, nice and malty with distinct biscuit/crystal taste. Subtleties of raisins and nuts. Very nice beer. A little thin tasting the more you drink of it.

Draught at Kaisla. Dark copper, creamy pale head. Dry, rusty malty aroma, raisins and dates. Dry malty flavor, little cocoa and rust, smooth nutty finish. Almost medium bodied, low smooth carbonation. Alright dry mild.

12oz bottle. Deep amber / copper color. Creamy off-white head. Sweet aroma of malt. Big aroma of nutty grain, sweet carmel, earthy hop. flavor of toffee, nutty malts, caramel malt. Light earth notes. A heavy malt character, very little hop. Creamy texture. My father hated this beer, I enjoyed it qite a bit. He loves IPAs though. Characteristicly, this is a polar opposite of what he is comfortable with. Heavy malt, light hop versus the huge American hop yumminess. Still real good.

Bottle. I tried to get my brother-in-law to try some of my favorites, but he settled on this one. Its a decent ale. Nice head. Nice color. Some malt, but a bit light on hops.

Pours a deep copper color with a white head. Malty aroma. Malty flavor with little hoppiness. Very sweet. Good malty beer goes down easily.

Yum. Nice aroma, decent head, good malty flavor with a hint of nuttiness, and goes down easy. It was a little thin in the palate, but overall a good beer.

Nice color and head. Fairly malty flavor. This is a nice ale, good but not exceptional.
