3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 15/20
Holy cow did this beer surprise me. I wasn’t expecting much, but it really blew me away. Solid ale taste, sweetly malty, a bit toasty. Would have been better if it were a tad bit creamier on the palate, but I was very pleased. Having this after a Grolsch at a beer tasting event was a treat since the Grolsch didn’t please me at all. I’ll have to try this again by itself some time soon (if I can find it around here) and re-review.

The color and head promise richness that is fully delivered by the robust smoky Malt. A man could live on this for quite some time…or at least until his wife caught him.

On draft in Paris. Pours a clear and not too dark brown with a sweet fruity aroma. The taste is full-bodied sweet with a sticky mouthfeel. Sweet finish with a bit of alcohol shining through. Pretty good

This was an excellent scotch ale straight from the mother country. I’ve had beer friends afraid to have a go at it, but I think excellent rich flavor overall. It was not too boosy, which I was expecting, so that made it pleasant. The rich dark brown color, almost opaque, was beautiful to the gastronomic eye.
2.9 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 11/20
bottled, poured clear brown with nice tan head, sweet fruity aroma, mildly sweet flavor with a lot of heaviness in feel and in alcohol in the back of the mouth, as described there is a lingering sweet finish, not bad but i think this is a one bottle kind of drink.

Bottle at 3 Dollar Dewey’s in Portland - Poured a clear brown in color with an off-white and creamy head that settled thickly over the beer in the glass. Aroma was of roasted malts with a slight smoky sweetness. Flavor was also of roasted malts, slight chocolate and a mild hoppiness. Palate was more watery than I expected. Decent Scotch...
