| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Feb 12, 2007 12 oz Bottle-poured a dark copper color w/a small off white head. Had a sweet, fruity, floral arona. Strong up front roasted barley malt flavor, did have a touch of a pine/christmas tree tint to it. Sweet bubblegum flavor w/a touch of spice. This was a little different, but it was very enjoyable-a true "Scotch Pine". Moderate sweet minty finish. BeerHeadBobby (142), In Hiding.., Florida, USA

LOTS of fruitiness on the nose.. almost like piney bubblegum...Pine is def. in the taste.. but lots of sweet dark fruits.. very different beer.. jblendy (518), Midland Park, New Jersey, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Feb 4, 2007 Again, unfortunately from memory. Medium palate, light fruit and bitterness, but very little pine flavor.Scots make some super easy drinking ale either way.Enjoyable, but nothing special. Beeroness (2), USA does not count | 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 10/10 | 5/5 | 10/10 | 4/5 | 11/20 | Feb 4, 2007 From the bottle. Pours a lovely and cloudy copper with a soft head. The nose is distinctly pine and malt with some bready/yeasty notes. The flavor is true pine and very pleasantly so, if you’re a fan of that style. The mouth is light to medium body and finishes quite dryly. An altogether quaffable ale. SDalkoholic (1188), Chula Vista, California, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Feb 3, 2007 Aroma is a average olfaction of a typical beer with some light spice of gigner or perhaps or some other kind of freshly cut root. Cloudy and filled with sediment. Mahogany color and has small head that started on its own as soon as i pulled the cap off. The flavor is rich in spice and has a background of bread and fruit. Kind of like a fruitcake flavor going on here, but some nice spice of ginger and touch of pine to make this a truly unique ale.

| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Jan 22, 2007 Bottle. Pours a slightly cloudy rust color with gray floaties and beige head. The aroma is quite malty with some yeasty bread tones and some fruity floral notes. The flavor is very piney, which surprised me a little because it is so subdued in the nose. The edge is taken off it by some bready yeast and malt notes. Some caramelized sugar sweetness floats around in there, too. The finish is increasingly dry and leaves a slight pine and alcohol aftertaste. I like this brew quite a bit, but I am a fan of pine and spruce flavors.
