Not huge scotch ale fan but this was pretty tasty. Sweetness balanced the liquor taste. Good beer. On tap at Ave Pub, October 2014.





Sweet bourbon taste. Light vanilla and spice notes. Good sipping beer.





Founders rulz. Best wee heavy I've tasted. Better on tap but very good out of the bottle I highly recommend this ale



Fantastic snifter sipper, roasted malts, caramel, rich body, slightly sweet, great nose, some deep cherry taste; super



Great sipping beer. Slightly sweet with lots of earthy woody flavors. Hides the alcohol well. Reminds me of a barely wine.



Dark mahogany in color with a razor thin tan head and bubbles with aromas of sweet boozy bourbon and cream like vanilla. Also has a subtle maple syrup note or caramelized sugar.
Sweet and heavy on the tongue this is definitely a warming wee heavy. A complex array of flavors starts out with flavors of sweet caramel then opening up into vanilla bourbon then finishing with a warming alcohol bite. Very malty, rich, full, heavy, and thick. Very enjoyable not to be missed!
