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.

12 oz bottle. Coppery amber with a decent white head. Nutty malt - tastes a whole lot like their ESB, frankly, with just a touch of peat smoke. Eh. Not impressed.

Pours a brassy orange color with dense head and no lacing. Floral aroma with notes of lemongrass, smells tea-like. Creamy bready flavor, very smooth and clean. The only presense of bitterness comes in a short duration at first taste then the rest is sweet caramel malt.

Off the pub can this beer is really amazing. Pours honey amber with a milky smooth white head with tons of lacing left behind after a beautiful cascading effect. Very smooth on the palate with a smoke character that defines this beer. The bottled version doesn’t show off the smoke as nicely. Light honey and toffee flavors mix with a peat flavor that melts the palate with the smoke into a sublime mixture that goes down so smooth. One of my favorite session brews, just really strikes the balance between drinkability and true character.

Clear brown bronze color, with a thin cap of whitish foam. Decent lacing. Pleasant peat in the aroma. Peat malt up front with a hint of sweetness in the beginning, the the finish is somewhat dry and sharp. Not musty at all. A little bit of tartness in the aftertaste. Medium body. intersting peat, but overall nothing to disappoint, and nothing to get excited about either.
