| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Jan 5, 2008 12 oz bottle. Deep amber beer with a thin white head. Very sweet caramelly malt aroma. A little bit of herbal/spicy hop flavour over a chewy sweet maltiness. Earthy and leathery with a rich sweet, slightly warming finish. Decent brew. argo0 (6891), Washington DC, USA

| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Jan 2, 2008 Brownich amber with no head. Dangerous. Does not taste like 10% Smooth and caramelly but some odd flavor as well. Some dirt and woods with the a hint of hops. Does not taste like a scotch ale to me. vulgarparasite (10), catasauqua, Pennsylvania, USA
| 4.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 5/5 | 8/10 | 5/5 | 18/20 | Dec 30, 2007 I was impressed with this beer. It could be a bit more carbonated, however it has great character and the alcohol content is masked well for not being overly sweet. I drank 5 and felt great. dpjuart (670), Indiana, Pennsylvania, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Dec 28, 2007 12 oz. bottle. Pours a great shade of amber-red with a caramel, fizzy head that dissipates rather quickly. Decent lacing. Huge malt nose with a touch of spice. Carmel and nut, maybe some cinnamon and such. Big caramel taste with some nutty character, then some fruit esters, berry and grape, with a mildly bitter ending with some spice and lots of alcohol. Good warmth, lingering well into the after of nut, spice and caramel. Pretty decent. Would do well with a bit of age on it. illinismitty (1795), Nashville, Tennessee, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Dec 27, 2007 Draft at Smokin Joes in Pittsburgh. Pours a vivid red with and off white head. Aroma of sweet malts. Initial flavor of caramel and nuts, but has a sweet berry like fruitness mid palate. There was some type of odd mineral or wood type flavor on the finish that was distracting. Alcohol was fairly subdued for a beer of this ABV. goldtwins (4079), Nesconset, New York, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Dec 24, 2007 Poured a clear deep golden brown with a medium off-white head. The aroma had a full sweet caramel malt to it and a hint of hops. Sweet malty and nutty flavor. Seemed to have a little citrus in it. Medium to full bodied and almost sticky. Decent warmth in the chest. bigrond (1044), factoryville, Pennsylvania, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 17/20 | Dec 8, 2007 extra points for the highi acl content. It is very well hidden. And for a beer this high (in alcohol). It had a really nice flavor.
Erie makes some damn good beer.
