Spicy aroma with brown sugar notes. Brown with head that faded fast. Grassy, yeasty and ample spice. No real smokiness for a scoth ale. Comes across as a less gassy version of a belgian strong ale with less spice and sweetness. Different and fun to drink.

Poured dark brown with tan head. Aromas of yeast, malt, candy sugar. Milld sweet flavor of caramel, sugars, and some fruitiness. Medium/full body with lightly fizzy carbonation. Very good, I’ll definately have this again.
