Pours a nice copper colour with a nice creamy off white head. Aroma is sweet. Flavour is sweet at first, with almost bitter metallica aftertaste. Body is thin.

Pours light copper with a thick creamy white head. Light malty aroma, with a nice creamy lactic sweetness. Flavor is as expected from the aroma. Palate is medium, creamy, and a bit sweet.

Ice tea color, orange hue.. Minimal off-white head when poured into a chalice glass. Medium carbonation and medium bitterness. Drinkable but lacks the flavor I am seeking in a beer. First bitter for me, so unable to compare to similar styles. I hope my next bitter is better.

i expected more from this one, flavor wasnt quite up to par for something advertised as a scottish ale, carbonation ruined most of taste, little bit of malt present but doesnt do enough to save this one.

Pours with a big but ugly head. Taste is far far too carbonated. Malt dominated biscuity and some grassy hops thin body not a good beer at all.

LIght caramel in color with a serious off-white head and some good lacing. Aromas of wheat, smoke, and some chalky malts. Sweet at various points on tasting, with a chocolaty finish with some good length on it. Some hop presence, but not much. Dusky, green hops. A little wanting in terms of balance.
