3.1 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 13/20
4 oz. draft from The Bridge. Pours a dark amber-brown color with a small, creamy off-white head that heavily laces the glass with nice rings. Aroma of caramel malts, soap, earth, paper, and a little brown sugar. The flavor is way too soapy, with caramel malts, cardboard, bread, earth, and cream. Light-medium bodied, with soft carbonation and a soft bready mouthfeel. A little dull.
3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
12oz bottle. Deep amber brown color. Thin, soapy, creamy lacing off-white head. Medium bodied, pretty well done. Well balanced. Slight traces of amber malt, lots of caramel and brown sugar, with a soapy fresh hoppiness that adds a little roughness to the mouthfeel. Malty, easy finish. Pretty nice stuff, truer to style than most.

12 oz bottle shared with Scott. Pours a clear amber with a medium sized off white head. Aroma of mild tropical fruit which fades after a few minutes, honey tea, grains and malt. Taste is much the same as the aroma. Grainy and malty.

3.7 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
On Tap at Brewforia in Meridian, ID Hazy light brown with a full dense creamy light tan head. Nitro looking. Malty aroma with a little cider notes. Earthy malt flavor, a little peaty and very soft carbonation. Medium bodied and a little slight sourness at the end. Malty and low IBU as a Scottish ale should be. Not as dark or rish as some of my favorites of the style but I style that I like.

Had at some bar a couple mile bike ride from New Belgium Brewing. I think it was called Standards oh something. Anyways I was very hungover from hanging with New Belgium folks and thought this would be easiest way to ease back into drinking world. Pours a standard amber color, tastes of malt, slightly sweet, toffee, and some wood. pretty standard.
