Commercial Description:
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.

[Stockholm Beer Festival 2005] A clear brown beer with a thin brown head. The aroma is sweet roasted with slight acidic hints. The flavor is sweet roasted, combined with notes of wood and nutmeg, on a slightly malty back ground. I find this closer to a Brown Ale, than a Porter.

(Bottle 35,5 cl) Pours a beautiful, clear reddish mahogany with a small, off-white head. Roasted, malty nose. Medium body with plenty of delicate, roasted malt - almost a bit vinous, port-like. A wee, burned edge. More a Scottish Ale than a Porter really. Lovely. 150306

12 fl oz bottle. Pours black with a huge and creamy light tan head. Cornish and caramel malt aroma. Flavour is mildly roasted, vague berry fruity note and a mild caramel flavour. Something for a porter - not with flaws - it is just not interesting. Mild roasted finish with more toasted caramel flavours.

Bottled. Very deep ambery brown colour, mediumsized brownish beige head. Aroma is roasted malts, burnt wet wood as well as some hops and mild notes of licorice. Flavour is quite much the same along with chocolate and caramel malts. A bit watery palate, but indeed strangely "soft" for being 6 % ABV.
