330 ml bottle @ Naamat, Tampere. BBE 15.12.2012.
Pours a slightly unclear copper colour with a chunky, lacy head. Aroma of heavy caramel malts, grass and exotic fruits. Flavour is heavy malty as well, with caramel, grass, hops, sweet fruits and some metallic notes. Medium bodied, rough mouthfeel and a sweet malty alcohol finish with low bitterness. Way too malty, sweet, boozy and stuffy, no floral or piny hop bite here.

3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
The smell and the taste is sweet with elements of roasted malt, brown sugar, fruit cake and alcohol. The the taste has a pleasant bitterness. I would not classify this beer as an IPA but more as a "Scottish Ale".

12th July 2009
Clear amber - brown beer. Softish palate, a little dry. Low carbonation. Bitter toffee and nuts. Some repressed fruity hop. Bitterish cinnamon and bubblegum. Finishes dry with a trace of banana. A lot going on here but not coming over as that well integrated. Alright though.
3.5 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
26 Nov 2009: Third BrewDog beer of the evening, poured into my lovely ’Judas’ glass, almost a full year of life left according to the label.
Murky dull, deep, old gold/muddy terracotta coloured body with an off-white head on top.
Smells of hops and more hops, maybe a hint of malted barley in there too.
Good hoppy taste, not over the top, just heavy on the hops. The ABV is feelable and sits well within the taste and structure of the beer.
Could do without some of the condescending blurb on the label, but the beer is very good.
