3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20Bottle from a mixer of scottish ales (or more specifically - Ales from Scotland). It was a gift. Pours a cloudy red-orange, very nice looking glass of ale. Aroma is very sweet smelling, not what I was expecting. Very pleasant feeling in the mouth, the flavor is very holiday-ish, though with a twinge of sadness. Reminds of sitting in front of a fireplace at a children’s hospital. Interesting. Tastes red and green.
3.3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 13/20
pours translucent medium-dark copper orange with a very small dissipating head, thin ringed retention, some slow streams. Light sweet malted caramel on the nose, with hints of pine.
Attack: 7/10-rich caramel malted sweetness
Mid-palate: malts, bright pine, creamy-half-fizzy mouthfeel, mild lemon
Finish: alcohol detection, persistent pine airyness, light-med malty bitter finish.
An interesting, balanced and very drinkable brew. Unique pine taste with a solid caramel malty backbone.

Redbrown and clear, lots of bubbles but not much head.
Sweet chocolate malty aroma. Wierd sweet flavor, reminds me of twizzler candy. Pine and chocolate also with decent bitter backing.

4.1 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 16/20
I really enjoyed this beer, it was something very different with a spicy pine flavor and a viscous mouth feel. Very good and very warming.

33 cl bottle @ home, BBE 06/2013
Beer started to come out of the bottle spontaneously. Aroma is sweetish with resin, fruity notes and caramel. Flavour has caramel, pine needles and toffee. Also slight woody and sherry notes. Quite intensive, but works with small sips. Nice, no off‐flavours even though the BBE was close.

33 cl bottle.
Pours copper-golden color with a small head. Aroma of herbs, some perfume, pine and malts. Quite weird aroma. Flavor of wood, some wet hay, earth and herbs. Slick palate. Weird and not very pleasant.

Poured into a tulip glass.
A - Pours a clear copper with a touch of haze. Off-white soft creamy head creates a dense collar.
S - Ripe cantaloupe, honey dew, sweet wood, floral alcohol, tart currents.
T - Complex fruity yeast, sweet malt with some alcohol twang. The spruce is soft and not overpowering. Orange blossom honey and vanilla. Strawberries come out at the end

Very fruity not what I expected. Everything worked together and the complexity assures you’ll taste new things everytime you drink this.
