Tap at the brewery tasting room. Rich malt nose, some smoke and peach, orange. Orange-amber colored, dark, with lace. Sweet and fruity flavor, with stewed stone fruits. A bit rough. Not as good as I remembered.

bit of smoke in the flavor as well as the aroma. Peat is also present (especially in the finish) as well as loads of toffee throughout.

From growler on 08/13/2008. Clear brown body with ruby highlights and a medium creamy off-white head. Light malty aroma, some nutty bready and earthy hints. Sweet lightly peated flavor, some caramel, and toffee hints. Medium body with moderately low carbonation and a fairly smooth finish.

Tap at the brewpub - this beer hovers somewhere in the limbo between scotch ale and scottish ale - much like a scottish ale, it is a dark brown beer - however, the aroma is loaded with the bubblegum and plum character I expect from a scotch ale, along with a touch of woody character - the flavor leans more towards scottish ale territory, but with higher sweetness covering up the slight nutty character and a hint of peat and smoke - decent, but nothing special.

Red copper ale with a thin off-white. Faint vanilla aroma. Very rich malty with more sustained butterscotch. Lighter bodied. On tap at BP, February 4, 2005.

Dark grey brown. Smells maltingly sweet. Smooth flat taste was fairly sweet and had a little alcohol taste lingering in the back. Not very complex, had a decent sized body. Belhaven knocks this one flat on its back though due to the better complexity of Belhaven.
