| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Jun 23, 2004 Nice dense, creamy head of fine bubbles. Damn I love the smell of a good scottish ale. Big malt but creamy and milky with a touch of licorice. Color is a murky dark brown. Very smoky flavor with more malts and a decent helping of hops to offset the malt. Flavor is a little lacking. Finish is not what I expected. Thin and fizzy with a strange sour and burnt sensation on the tongue. Feels like more than 4.6% alcohol also. A decent scottish ale that starts off great but ends kind of dissapointing. JensenTaster (1585), Denmark
| 4.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 3/5 | 9/10 | 3/5 | 18/20 | Jun 7, 2004 (on bottle) Hail to the scotts!! My fave scottish ale and since I favorite scotish ale before anything else...
very powerfull liqurice and smoke to the nose. Although that lasts into the taste too, the fine hopping give the brew a fresh feeling too it. Big heath-aftertaste. A prie example of scottish ales. Thank you, Orkney Brewery. cb (809), Wheat Ridge, Colorado, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Jun 6, 2004 Beautiful dirt-colored ale with frothy head. Smoky, dark corn syrup and brown sugar aroma. A lot of dark chocolate and just a touch of coffee adds another dimension to the malts. I love how they don’t go wacky and put a lot of hops to "add body." Very true to style, a lot of flavor for the low ABV. FROTHINGSLOSH (1984), GREENSBURG, Pennsylvania, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 2/5 | 13/20 | May 21, 2004 Updated: May 20, 2006Sampled from a 12 oz brown bottle this beer pours a black color with a very small head. The scent is chocolate, coffee and molasses. The flavor is dark chocolate, coffee and a hint of smoke. This beer is a little thin, and the flavor is kind of disappointing compared to the scent. veronika (410), Sweden
