Draft. Aroma of sweet cream and some sweet caramel malt. Flavor is pretty much the same, very creamy, like bottingtons or guiness. It was alright, but could have been better.

Draft, Nitrogen charged. Faint aromas of light coffee, milk chocolate, herby hops and dough and cobwebs for the yeast. It had a creamy off white head which was fully lasting with excellent lacing. Color was clear brown. Flavor was lighty bittersweet with a moderately sour short finish. Palate was medium bodied, creamy and had a soft carbonation

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.
