VTHopHead (670), Barre, Vermont, USA Nov 5, 2006 Sampler at the brewpub - Called "Off-Kilter Scotch Ale", but from the descriptions here it was basically the same as the 80 Schilling. Very low carbonation with very thin head. Faint malty aroma. Flavor is weak/non-existent and palate is watery. Not very good... Eyedrinkale (3102), Beer Town, New York, USA Nov 3, 2004 Cask @ brewery. Deep amber color. Taste is smooth, light and creamy. Sweet without any real hop bite to speak of. Hardly any peat taste to it or any smokiness. Volgon (2458), Manchester, New Hampshire, USA Dec 21, 2003 On tap at the brewpub. Brown/orange with no head. Dull malt aroma, thin bodied, really not that much taste. dirtymike (2019), Manchester, New Hampshire, USA Dec 21, 2003 Reddish brown in color.Malty at the same time slightly sweet in the start,Finishes dry and with a good palate. freekyp (792), Thomasville, North Carolina, USA Dec 6, 2003 Cask Conditioned version** Deep reddish brown with small but resilient off white head. Lite sugary maple/pear scent. Body was watery with no enticing hop or malt flavors. Disappointing at best.
