Beerman6686 (780), Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA Oct 18, 2007 I dont like scottish ales very much and this was no exeption. Nothing special here at all DomErie (11), McKean, Pennsylvania, USA Sep 15, 2006 This is a really smooth ale that goes down easy. Nice sweet finish. Not much to look at but one of their better beers. glscuter (1), Meadville, Pennsylvania, USA does not count Mar 12, 2006 Good hearty ale, has good color although head disappears quickly. Difinite alcohol taste to back up the 6.8%. Overall a very nice ale. Homebrewerguy (253), Oil City, Pennsylvania, USA Jan 13, 2005 Updated: Feb 15, 2005Ach!

Earlier Rating: 1/13/2005 Total Score: 3.2 DRAUGHT sweet malty flavor, not enough hops to balance though, creamy off-white head diminishes rapidly, dark amber in color, finish has a touch of astringency and definate alcohol taste Probiere (992), Iowa, USA Apr 1, 2004 A scotch ale, this was drinkable but not really on for the style. It was almost estery, with a distinct apple note. The alcohol was too apparent, but the rest of the malt did its best to compensate, with figs, honey, toasty biscuits and a sweet finish. Soothing, but it seemed too young. Maybe some ageing would mellow the alcohol note. Excellent firm mouthfeel.
