Pours opaque dark brown black with sweet aroma hints of malt. Taste presents sweet at first then scotch bitterness finishes

Tastes like garbage. I'm a big fan of dark beers. This has a horrible after taste. Bitter. Not good.

Sweet and citrusy for a scotch ale. Not my favorite of the category. Love the bottle art though!

A well constructed Scottish ale. Not as heavy as an oatmeal stout, but just as flavorful. Dark beige head over a reddish brown ale. Needs to be cool but not really cold. Caramel sweetness. Just enough hopping to lend a touch of bitter without tipping over the smooth and sweet. If I had tasted blind, I would have guessed this as a nice red ale. Not a heavy mouthfeel, but not watery.

The texture and flavors are unexpected. In a blind taste test is almost think this is a porter. Very smooth and malty

Enjoyed cask at Blind Tiger. Very smooth with a little scotch barrel finish.
