Tap at Beach Muffin. Cloudy dark brown with a low, fine head. Nice caramel nose, oranges. Full chocolate fudge flavor, caramel, citrus, spicy yeast. Smooth and delicious and very easy to drink. Moving towards a wee heavy.

Light brown color. Lovely nose of whiskey, apricot and cherries. Very malty, slightly sweet. Low carbonation. Smooth. Mouth shows lots of chocolate malt, whiskey, cherries. Really well balanced. Nice beer.

Billed as a Scottish, this is hazy amber, nice caramels, fresh malts, light brown sugars, has a well-balanced character. Good malt development makes this work.

Tap at Beach Muffin. Light toffee and malt on the nose although quite faint. Hazy chestnut color with a finger of head that lingers. Some prune, toffee and Milky Way (candy bar) nougat and caramel notes. Not sweet like the style should be and actually quite dry. Well-rounded body and mouthfeel. Slight lingering hoppy bitterness on the finish. More dryness. This is definitely a Yorocco scotch ale (not in the traditional sense) but really nice hybrid take on a traditional style. --- Beer merged from original tick of Malty Dew on 19 Jun 2016 at 16:26 - Score: 8. Original review text: Light malt and toffee on the nose. Fairly dry but nice Milky Way candy car notes on the palate. Light hoppy finish.
