Jun 3, 2006 Bottled. Ruby colour, small beige head. Aroma of alcohol, raisins and fruits. Flavour is leather, malts and hops, along with some roasted and spicy hints. Hides ABV well in the flavour, otherwise quite similar to Skullsplitter.

Jun 3, 2006 A special beer for a special day -- reminds me of an expertly crafted wingtips: on the days that it is right there is nothing more right. I just love that mossy peaty boggy smokey truth that this beer brings -- like the original evolution soup from which all other beers crawled. You don’t need Scotch when you have this beer. The truest example of one of my favorite styles.

May 29, 2006 Wonderful burgundy red colour with nice off-white to beige head. Aromas range from smoke to cranberries with hints of caramel and toffee. The taste is more centred around the smoke, but a creamy mouthfeel makes that appear great. Some nuts (sweet ones) a touch of alcohol and some citric zest at the end...

May 29, 2006 From the bottle.
Pours a very attractive red-brown with a beige head. The nose is some peat and some smoke and a hint of toffee. The flavor is some serious smoked almonds, definite whisky peatiness, a hint of lime, somewhat sweet but not strongly so. The mouthfeel is the weak link here,
thin for the style and unable to measure up to the rest of the brew.
This isn’t bad, but nor am I overly impressed.

May 28, 2006 Tap Dark, blood-red. Big white head that disappears slowly and leaves a nice lacing and film. It has a strong but not unpleasant vinegar smell, sweet with traces spices, mint, cinammon and peach punch. Light bodied. Tastes sweet with hints of figs ans nuts smoothly hoppy. Short finish and oily texture...it smelled and looked better. <FONT SIZE=1>Pint shared with <a href = http://www.ratebeer.com/View-User-30044.htm> Panzerfaust </FONT>

May 28, 2006 Nice brown, very smooth and buttery. Smokey and fills your mouth. Drank at Kelvin Arms on tap. This beer at this bar is sublime. Great beer.

May 27, 2006 I had this on tap at Pipers Pub. Im not sure if it was something they did when it was poured or what but the first sip was sweet and had a sugary aftertaste when i licked my lips. the rest of the beer was not sweet just good. i wouldnt have guessed it to have a 6.5 alc% either. i recomend giving this a try , i was satisfied with the one i had despite it was 6 bucks
