adrian910ss (1032), philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA Apr 29, 2008 1 liter bottle. Pours a dark semi clear coppery amber with a medium sized light beige head. Aroma of candied sugar, malt and bourbon. Taste of candied sugar, malt and watery bourbon.
Hophead22 (252), Redlands, California, USA Aug 3, 2008 Big 1L bottle. Poured a dark reddish/brown. Virtually no head. Big malty woody aroma, almost like a barleywine. Sour tasting, hope this isn’t how it’s supposed to taste, hoping for a bad bottle. Not crazy about this one. bu11zeye (3780), Frisco, Texas, USA Jun 28, 2008 (1L bottle) Pours a murky amber-brown body with a small beige head. Aroma of bourbon, oak, raisins, vanilla, and plum. Flavor of flat cola, caramel malt, raisins, and slight oxidation. travita (762), Lewisville, Texas, USA Jun 11, 2008 Light brown to red in color, clear, and has a decent head. Smell is dark stone fruits, brown sugar, vanilla, and alcohol. Taste is a lighter than the smell, sugary, sweet, alcohol, and malts. mk70 (61), USA Apr 30, 2008 Pours brown. Looks like a watered down cola. Nose is unique, but not pleasant. Has a sweet malty smell(too sweet). Scotch is barely evident in it’s flavor. Overall it’s flavor is not something I enjoyed and have poured it down the drain 3X now. While I enjoy Ale and multiple versions of scotch(Islay is the favorite), this isn’t palatable to me. Definitely an acquired taste. After three tries, I can honestly say this one is not for me.
