| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Nov 12, 2009 Nice smoky aroma. Caramel in color with a thick head. Taste is sweet and bitter with a lingering good aftertaste. Overall very good Scottish Ale. Another great beer from 3 Floyds. xmarcnolanx (792), Kirkwood, Missouri, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Nov 7, 2009 Aroma is smoke, chocolate, caramel, and hops. Some cardboard is also present, and tinniness.
Taste is slightly sour, smoky, chocolate, and caramel. I get more cardboard.
Slightly old and funky, with a touch of hops.
Solid, but nothing mindblowingly amazing.
For a Scottish, this is very good. Jethro6191 (21), USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Nov 6, 2009 Pours brownish red with a thin tan head. Pleasing roasted malt, chocolate and peat aromas. This beer starts sweet with malt, caramel, and a little chocolate then finishes with a warming alcohol/bourbon flavor. drpimento (809), La Crosse, Wisconsin, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Nov 2, 2009 Served with a medium, off-white head and no lace. Color is a very dark amber with brown highlights. Aroma is very malty, sweet, a bit roasty, a hint of peat, caramel, toffee, and nice. Flavor’s about the same. Perhaps with a touch more peat. Body is perhaps very slightly thin and good carbonation. Finish is pleasing; with a tad bit o’ booze. Nice drinking beer. Seems like it’s tamer than it used to be. boamr (113), Pennsylvania, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Oct 25, 2009 Pours a dark amber color almost brown with next to no head. Has a nice malty brown sugar smell. Has about the same taste with a nice smooth finish to it. LooseCannon (927), Norfolk, Virginia, USA
| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Oct 24, 2009 12oz bottle, Thanks to Allstar for this one. Pours copper in color with thin tan head. Aroma roasted malt, brown sugar and caramel. Taste roasted malt and caramel with bitter finish. awiseman01 (342), Indianapolis, Indiana, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Oct 9, 2009 Bottle. Pours dirty, murky brown with minimal beige. Nose is brown malts, brown sugar and faint molasses. Taste is smooth and slightly carbonated with some nice dark red fruit along with sweet malts and a nice spice character that adds a superb touch. I really thought this was great...will have to stop by Macnivens and get the tap. MrPickles (113), Wisconsin, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Oct 3, 2009 The first time I had this I LOVED it. I had to re-rate as I knew it was overrated because of the style. That said it is still a very sold beer that I will always recommend. Pour is redish brown with no head. Aroma has strong malts, caramel, toffee and a small but of vanilla. The first time I got much of the same flavors as the aroma, but the second I got a mix of that and hops. Either time it is still a solid beer.
