Pours a beautiful medium brown with rich ruby highlights and a small tan head. Aroma offers bold earth, wood, light molasses, and some whisky notes. Smooth, medium body. Flavor is much richer than the aroma. Powerful brown sugar, dark ripe berries, wood, light vanilla, chocolate, and faint whisky in the background. A complex and well-balanced beer. Stunning.
Bottle from Albertsons. Pours out a nice mahogany with ruby tinges. Airy head fades fast. Whiskey, brown sugar and earthy notes. Taste is even more robust, more booze, alcohol warmth, sweet and syrupy. Scottish ale on steroids.
