Bottle. Pours ruby deep red. Nose is smoked peat and caramel. Taste is smoked peat with a very sweet blend of malts. Palate is stable but nothing that interesting.

Jul 31, 2008 pours a nice amber color with big head that reduces to a light film on top. taste is of burnt roast and malts with some smoke flavor as well. finish is clean and goes down smooth. not a bad brew.

Jul 3, 2008 Pours a tawny brownish red with a creamy tan head. Nose is caramel and barley. Rich and creamy on the palate. Slight peat taste, along with burnt toast and coffee, but not overly smokey. Dry finish. Very satisfying flavor that pairs well with red meats or haggis.

Jul 1, 2008 Went into this a bit nervous as I hadn’t heard great things about this beer. was pleasantly surprised. pours a dark caramel color. has a good flavor that finishes with the smokey taste. An interesting change of pace.
