Oct 9, 2007 Bottle. Very pale orange/yellow colour and a smell reminiscient of a traditional lager. But this is an ale! The taste though, is all ale ;o) Slightly honey-sweet to begin with, it transforms into a malty taste with clear taste and aroma of oak.

Sep 23, 2007 The aromas of caramel and vanilla are strong and pleasant. It has a simailar flavour in description to its smell. Not very bitter but full flavoured nonethless. Truly different...in a good way.

Sep 2, 2007 Rich aroma with caramel and vanilla dominating, but also some woody notes. Medium to full bodied, not too refreshing, but more packed with flavor. Lacking bitterness in the finish to balance the sweetness. Very interesting beer.

Aug 30, 2007 Poured it in my Westmalle glas - because it was the glas that most closely looked like the Innis & Gunn glas.
It pours a dark amber/copper body that has a lots of bubbles in it, with a thin creamy layer of foam.
Aroma of vanilla toffee and oak, fruity - i really love the aroma cant stop smelling it.
Flavor is of vanilla, toffee, oak, plum, little alcoholic tonse(the good kind)- but it isnt that large that you would excpekt from the aroma.
Palate is medium thick and pretty smooth but little harsch to, pretty fizzy.
Its a very good beer and very priceworthy.

Aug 28, 2007 Pours amber or light brown. Thick, off white head. Strong caramel, brown sugar, and cherry aroma. The scent had me prepped for something really exciting. However, the taste doesnt fully come together quite the way the aroma does. A caramel maltiness gives way to a tiny hop note. The beer carries a slight dryness. There is some whisky noticeable as well. Despite some missed expectations, the beer is still great.

Aug 28, 2007 Light caramel colour. Light body. Whisky nose, oak wood, smooth, whisky taste - with fine malt support. Not much hops. A very satisfying drink. Underrated in my opinion.

Aug 27, 2007 12oz bottle from Capone’s (Norristown, PA). Really nice bottle, despite the clear glass. Pours clear amber, with a moderate sized white head that fades quickly. Nice aroma of oak, brown sugar, and peat. The flavor is initially sweet caramel malt, then finishes with some mild hops. As the beer warms, some oaky, whisky flavors are present in the finish. Nothing exciting, but fairly refreshing.
