Brewed in the tradition of centuries old Scottish brewing methods, "Road" is reminiscent of a Porter. Road Dog is a rich, malty beer with hints of chocolate and licorice resulting from the use of four prized malts.

Bottle. Strong looking black beer with a weakish head. The aroma is malty, roasted and milky coffee. The flavour is rich, smooth, lightly bitter and milky coffee. Overall a very good beer.

Bottle. Poured a dark brown color with a thin tan head. Aroma of roasted malt and bitter chocolate. Flavor reflects the aroma. Slightly too thin for a porter.

Dark brown. Leathery liquorice aroma. Taste is sweet and malty with a little ash and a gentle bitter chocolate finish. Fair enough, though it does not quite tick every porter box.

Dark mahogany with a small, bubbly white head. Watery, grainy nose of roasted malt, reminiscient of swill fests. Flavor is a little better with more roasted malt, caramel, some medicine. Palate is sharp and stinging, rather odd when coupled with the lingering bitter roast. Not very impressed.
