Yellow Brown with a tinge of orange. Thin white head disappears quickly. Maltiness on the nose, touch of oak and vanilla. Tart citrus taste is balanced well with the sweet malt. Lively mouthfeel.

3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 12/20 Nuffield (3348) - Roseville, Minnesota, USA - JUL 21, 2012
Good vibrant flavor with some prominent caramel notes--suggesting that the beer has better balance than might have happened with so much cask/whisky stuff going on in it. Not too hot, compared to other 7% beers I’ve had recently, too. Decent. (cask at Scottish Real Ale Festival, Edinburgh, June 2012)
3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20 ComradeK (732) - Blue Mountains, AUSTRALIA - JUL 13, 2012
330ml bottle. Pours a hazy medium gold, with a tiny white head which fades quickly and leaves no lacing. Strong caramel malt and fruitcake notes mix with some faint oak in the aroma. Very mild grassy hops soon give way to a blend of caramel malt and some charry, woody scotch whisky notes. There is a touch of oak in the finish. This is not an especially exciting beer, but neither is it particularly offensive. A fairly middle of the road affair.
3.9 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 17/20 apeirohedron (1) - AUSTRALIA - JUL 10, 2012 does not count
Scored a couple of bottles at a whisky fair. Hardly any smell or head, but delicate and complex taste. Tastes more like beer than like whisky, unlike many other "whisky beers".
