Sep 23, 2004 Cocoa colored head, dark black body. Nose is fruity, vinous, sensations of cherries, grapes, other dark fruits, but mildly, plus some spiciness, cloves, etc. Medium carbonation. Solid malt, and minimal hop presence. Thick and full, a perfect fit for a damp, cold, dark island, an ideal comfort for a gloomy atmosphere. Finish is bitter, but overall, if a bit too light in body for my taste.

Aug 18, 2004 Many, many bottles when in Scotland... Quite difficult to understand what is it and to rate it properly. A combination of porter, stout, Scottish ale and dunkel. Ruby, roasty, coffeeish, caramelly, dusty, malty, sweet and bitter, dry and burnt... Complex, to say the least.

Aug 8, 2004 Had this at the Bier Garden in Portsmouth VA on 8-7-04. Dark brown body with a small brown head. Aroma is sweetened with hints of maloasses mixed with malt and smoky or burnt wood. Taste is also smoky and malted with more of the roasted flavor coming through moreso than the sweeter notes or bitterness. Mouthfeel is carbonated and well rounded. Smokiness lingers throughout the finish with the malt being in the backdrop. Good beer!

Jul 27, 2004 Great beer with a nice redbrown color and a ivory creamy head. This is a typical scotish ale with a light to medium sweetness. It has a intens fruity aroma and a medium body and a good dosis of fine malts and hints of fresh roasted coffeebeans. In the afthertaste there is a nice boost of nobel hops. Fine bitterness in the end.
