Light brown slightly hazy pour. Medium light brown head. Malty, slightly fruity aroma and flavor but not overwhelming. Not quite a Scotch Ale but really quite tasty. I enjoyed it very much, Actually rather refreshing.

Oct 12, 2008 I was hoping for a big, sweet vinous scotch ale. This is not a bad beer, but it is nothing like that. Quite dry with earth and abundant peat. Dry malt, light smoke, surprisingly hot pepper,

Oct 11, 2008 Deep cloudy copper/amber color with a thin off white head. Very sweet aroma, toffee and caramel taste with a hint of spice. Has a nice rich toasted flavor with a smooth and sweet finish.

Oct 3, 2008 Served from 22-oz bomber during ABR ’08 in Minneapolis, MN. Pours a semi-hazy copper amber brew with a thin off-white head that quickly dissipates to a thin ring. Aroma of caramel malt, a touch of smoked peat, and some toffee. Taste is medium bodied, with flavors of toasted dark malt, toffee, some iced tea and a hint of butter. Finish is semi-sweet with a short lived bitterness that quickly disappears. Nice alcohol warmth too.
