Clean amber color, strong malt aroma with a hint of peat, strong malt flavor with a mixture of peat and , bitter hop aftertaste, too bitter for a scottish, more like an esb<br />

hopdog (4950), Lansdale, Pennsylvania, USA Jul 11, 2004 On tap. Light amber in color. Sweet smells with light hops. Sweet malty taste with light hoppy bitterness. Nothing special. hopscotch (4756), Vero Beach, Florida, USA Mar 12, 2004 Sparkling clear amber ale with orange highlights and a small, fizzy, off-white head. Nice malt aroma with notes of caramel, butterscotch and spruce. Well-balanced flavor with a malty, woodsy, piney flavor. Some butterscotch notes as well. Full-bodied with an oily mouthfeel and lively carbonation. Lengthy, bitter, dry finish. With all the hops, it's a good brew, but not really true to the style.
