Pours a brownish gold with a sweet malty nose, soapy head that settles into a lightly carbonated 50% lazy lacing.. Body smoky and light. crisp finish

14.9 oz can. Pours reddish brown with a thick off-white head. Aroma of caramel and malt. Tastes like some dark sugar was added as well, although the ABV suggests otherwise. Nice full palate, but not too thick. Just a good drinkable ale. Amazing, for a beer in a can.

16.9 oz bottle. pours ruby brown w/ an off-white head. foamy, slowly receeding head, filling my pint glass. aromas of freshness, pale malts, and a pinch of caramel. smooth, dark sugar flavor range - from caramel and butterscotch to brown sugar and creamy fruit. also...a nice arrangement of hops in both aroma and taste. one of the few scottish ales i have enjoyed tasting. the mouthfeel is foamy, but non-offensive; hoppy, but not overtly. this is an ale to enjoy, and not to nitpick. time for another.

Poured from bottle. Nice brown color, decent head that lasted a bit. Smelled malty sweet and hoppy...Taste was very unique...The bitterness seemed to be up front on this one with a more mellow finish. Definitely different for me, but I enjoyed it!

Sweet yeasty carmel aroma. Small bubbles arouse to form a creamy head. Rich maly and carmel taste. A beer you would not mind having a couple of. I really enjoyed this beer.

Bouteille. Robe brune légèrement voilée surmontée d’une mousse blanche qui s’estompe. Arômes de malt caramel. Saveurs de malt caramel, de malt fumé et de houblon amérisant.

Had a few bottles at a 50th wedding anniversary party I was at. Pours a deep copper/amber with an average off white gently lacing head. Aroma of nuts, dark fruits, sweet malts. Flavor of dark fruits, caramel, toffee, nuts and more hop bitterness than I was expecting.
