Botle 50 cl. Courtesy of fonefan. Pours a clear golden with a rough off-white head. A little citrus and nuts in the nose. Rather light body, a little roasted malts, nuts and a whiff of smoke and ashes. Subdued bitterness. 090710

Bottled. A golden beer with a thin white head. The aroma has notes of elderflowers, malt, and straw. The flavor is sweet with notes of elderflowers, malt, and straw, leading to a bitter finish.
3.8 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
Pours deep amber with a reddish hue like brandy. Great aroma Caramel, malty, very sweet, some wood and vanilla. Oak. it is very nice on the nose. Flavour is nice very nice malty, strong flavour. Very spicy and woody. Very malty, caramel flavours. This is a very nice beer. I love the Tullabardine scotch and now I must say I love their beer. It really tastes like tullabardine.
3 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 13/20
Smells like a cask, more of wine than anything else. Clear and red, very nice, doesn’t really look like beer. Hardly any head on pour, less lacing in the goblet. Sweet and wine-like, not foamy at all, a bit of yeast flavour but it finishes with the barrell flavour. Quite a nice flavour, though the flatness isn’t something I’m used to yet.
2.7 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 11/20
A very dark amber, very little head - meh. Caramel, sweet, dusty grain, bread crusts, not much else. That was pretty disappointing for aroma but not a bad smell. The taste is sweet, lots of English hops, a touch sour, caramel, some oak - so so. Smooth feel with good bitterness. Looks like my money will go elsewhere next time.
2.8 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 12/20
Bottle. Pours a clear chestnut brown with a golden head. Aroma is is toffee with lots of buttery oak. Sweet caramel flavour, again with big oaky flavours imparting butter and vanilla, faint fruit and nut elements are here too. Pretty thin though, with a slightly papery finish. Just OK for me.
3 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 12/20
Bla bla brown clear body with an ugly boring rocky cap. I’v once again been told what I’m smelling is Pete and some vanilla and chocolate. Smooth chocolaty taste with ash. So very thick feeling. Oak and tons of malt and more of that pete flavor keeps coming through. Meh good enough I guess.
3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Bottle. Decent fruitiness, nuttiness, and some richness. Strikes me much more as a nut brown/whiskey hybrid than a bitter. Not nearly enough hop character to be well-baanced, or deserving of the Bitter title. Okay, but I doubt I would buy it again.
3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Surprised that this series of beers shows up in Canada and there is only 1 rating. 500ml bottle. Thin dark copper coloured with a mocerate off-white head. Sweet malt aroma, light hops and a hint of the barrel. Tastes like a bitter aged in peaty, oaky scotch barrels. Definate whisky notes. Could get accustomed to the woody flavour.
