The whiskey added nothing extra to the standard Scottish ale. The taste was indistinguishable when compared head to head. Still a shallow ale, with carbonation that was very soda like.

Tap. Dark copper brown with a fizzy tan head. Molasses oak and very subtle whiskey aroma and taste with a thin watery palate. I want something more robust overall.

Draft at the Kansas City location. Aroma is mild with cardboard and bourbon. Very thin on the mouth. Flavor lacks any real backbone and tastes like an eye dropper full of bourbon put into a glass of water. They really need to beef up the Scottish Ale a bit. Nothing to it and adding the whiskey just messes things up even more.
