Clear dark amber pour. White thick head that lasted. Malty sweet aroma. Roasted toffee with almost no bitterness. Smooth finish.

Bottle. Pours with a thick white head and a golden, but flat body. Sweet aroma. A bit of a smokeiness in the flavor, but finishes a lot like a cola.

Pours rust/copper colored with a white nitro head. Nose is fruity with a caramelly sweetness hidden well beneath. Taste is still fruity, with caramel malt flavor along with brown sugar and slightest hint of peppery peat. Palate is nitro-like, creamy and soft. Very easy drinking, but not really that interesting. Would like to try it without the widget.

Copper-colored pour from a 12 oz. bottle. Malt aroma and flavor present from the start. Drank with a plate of hot wings, so admittedly some of the senses were alittle dulled, but for a low alcohol beer, this was very tasty and drinkable. Had a good finish that was still evident despite the food spices.

I was expecting something with a little more smoky taste to it. However, it should not matter much. It bursts forth with a nice creamy off-white head. It also has that distinctive butterscotch aroma which is the trademark of a well-brewed scottish ale. Drink it slowly, it is definitely worth savoring.

Draft... pours a dark nut color with a huge creamy head that lasts more than the beer due probably to the large amount of malts that give the beer its taste, also in the nose were pecans, wood, and grass. A full body but lacking complexity in the flavor, a littley bitter and smokey finish.
