| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Jul 20, 2007 Darnit I wanted to try another Scottish when I bought this. Not what I wanted but a very good bitter. Pour was a deep gold with a nice 2 finger off white head that lasted until I was done. Aroma of ashes (?) and hops. Taste was mostly earthy hops with some smoke and malt in the background. Mouth biting carbonation which was a nice change of pace from most bitters.

| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 11/20 | Jul 18, 2007 12 oz bottle at TABC in Dallas. Amber color with off white head. There is a sweetness to this brew in both aroma and flavor. I’m not particularly big on bitters so only found it to be okay. wilderthanyou (414), Guelph, Ontario, Canada
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Jul 17, 2007 Draught Can. Pours An amber red colour with the nitro head. Weak aroma of malts. Strong flavourful notes of roasted malts, with points of caramel, a light hop bitterness in the finish with a warm alchohol feeling in the back. Not bad, Belhaven has yet to disapoint me. bhensonb (4240), Woodland, California, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Jul 16, 2007 Draught can. Aroma of light caramel malt. Amber color with the nitro head. Creamy. A slightly smoky sweet malt. Not finding much bitter. Some stone fruit, and arguably a bit of citrus. The finish is fairly balanced. Pleasant. DeweyDell (155), Columbus, Ohio, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Jul 15, 2007 12 oz bottle. Pours copper with a white head and pretty white lacing. Smells like sweet malts and a little yeast.
Smoke comes out in the flavor. Perfect creaminess. Good price. Something to keep stocked for when friends come over. badlizard (2338), Berkeley, California, USA

| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Jul 14, 2007 Bottle (though I took a swig from a can before): Pours a light brown colour with a creamy head. Light aroma without much interesting traits. Palate is creamy as all hell with a light hoppy taste and some bitterness. Tastes a lot like a cleaner Boddingtons. Pretty good bitter ale. If you are what you drink then I’m a bitter man. DaMenace123 (251), Houston, Texas, USA
