On tap at Trumpeter Ale House in Mt. Vernon, WA--Poured a thick deep chestnut-brown body with a fluffy beige-tan head. Smokey, malty, gritty, chewy, spicily hopped nose. Rich, sticky, piny, sugary flavor. Complex, great sipping brew. Love BB!

<b>Taster - Washington Brewers Festival - Kenmore, WA <br /></b> Aroma – Huge scotch ale aroma. Very peaty with a nice hops and malt biscuit aroma. <br /> Appearance – Dark Amber in color, clear with a thin head. <br /> Flavor – Very nice scotch ale. Had tons of peaty smokiness with a great hops backing and the malt build was great. <br /> Palate – Great Scottish Mouthfeel, nice texture with a dry finish. <br /> Overall – A very nice beer with a great flavor the spice was grassy and light. A very nicely built beer.
