Growler at KP’s Cellar. Pours dark red-brown with tan head. Aroma is astringent and malty. Very malty flavor with a little bit of peat and some slight molasses and chocolate. Did they use candi sugar? Average scotch ale.

solid black, thin fine tan head, rich dry malt aroma with hints of smokey chocolate, creamy body, increadable huge rich malt flavor, nice ripe fruit with plums and raisons, lots of carmel flavor but well tempered with just a bit of sweetness, good chocolate, nice smokey peat in the finish that just grows and grows as it warms, no smoke or peat used in the brewing<br />

Apr 14, 2006 <i>Draught at the brewpub</i><br />Dark amber color. Some caramel and candi aroma. The taste is malty, sweet, caramel, well round. Similar to the Red Hydrant Ale, but sweeter. Pleasant.

Feb 13, 2006 Looks and smells nice. Fairly sweet, but also a little sour. Sweeter at the finish and more than one would expect for the style. Tasted a little light actually on the alcohol too, but still fairly decent.
