[330ml bottle from Westholme Stores] Black-brown with a large tan head and a light fizz. Coffee up front, then honey, chocolate, charcoal and a hint of health drink. Lovely relaxing late night beer maybe a little sweet and sticky by the end, but it does have the roast malt bitterness to balance. Lovely stuff.

3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
330mL bottle at Brewdog Birmingham, pours a deep dark amber / near-black with a small tan head. Aroma of wet dog (?!), some dark fruits, and a little caramel. Flavour of caramel, dark fruits, and a healthy dosage of hops that feels out of place in a scotch ale. Medium-bodied for the style, without as much potency as I would’ve hoped for. Nevertheless, decent scotch ale.
