Elwood (1834) - Between a rock and a hard place, Virginia, USA - MAY 16, 2010
Serving: 750 ml bottle from Paeonian Grocery.
It pours a deep mahogany color with a small, resilient, off-white head. The nose is malty with a bit of earth, spice, and caramel. The flavor has notes of toasted malt, dark caramel, a bit of dust, peat, and earth. Slightly sweet but dry. Medium body with high, aggressive carbonation and a short finish. A nice spicy scotch ale that does a good job blending the best of the Belgian and Scotch worlds.

dylan88 (208) - Rimini, ITALY - MAY 15, 2010
33 cl bottle. Pours a dark, clear brown with a white head. Aroma is very well-balanced with both a citrusy bite of hops alongside an earthy hint of malt and yeast. Body is smooth and full with flavors of dark fruit, malt, and molasses giving way to a slowly evolving finish that’s both sweet and strong.
