Aug 25, 2008 12oz bottle from variety pack...pours dark brown, barely any head...chocolate, malts, and roasted coffee bean aroma...flavor was much of the same...thin though...decent flavor, just not enough oomph.

Aug 23, 2008 Bottle @ home. Dark reddish brown, off-white head. Aroma is malts and some hops, even a bit skunky. Gets better when it warms up. Flavour is sweet, caramel, coffee, roasted malts. A bit thin, but nice flavours, soft and dry mouthfeel.

Aug 20, 2008 Almost black pour with a tan head. I smell some roastiness and toastiness..chocolate, malt and some caramel maybe? Flavor is ok, kinda water. Coffee and chocolate are noticeable and maybe some dark fruit. Not bad, but not even close to their imperial porter.

Aug 16, 2008 Bottle with no reference to Scottish. Dark brown/ruby, translucent, nice head. Medium bodied and very smooth. Chocolate malts come through. Slightly sweet and not too roasty. Possibly not daring enough, but still worthwhile.
