Bottle. Medium to dark brown with a small tan head. Aroma has a lot of caramel. Taste is toffee, caramel. Not so much salt.

Flight pour at brewery. Pours clear amber with small white head. Aroma has a ton of salty caramel. Flavour has a ton of up front salty caramel. Reasonably off-dry finish though. For such a caramel-forward beer this is actually pretty solid. Nice.

Tap at Wiz. Aroma is big caramel. But not overly sweet. Bit of cocoa powder. Taste is good. Caramel of course, can't quite get the saltiness, but there's definitely a little bite to it. Nice.

Draft pour at Parallel 49. Ruby caramel pour with a thin, patchy head. Sweet, toasty aroma. Cinnamon, vanilla, cream, mixed spices. Flavor is a maple like constant. Caramel heavy malts. Remains smooth, and not boozy in any way. Delicious scotch ale here. Quite inpressed.

Tap. Pours light brown, not very carbonated. Full on caramel nose, sweet withs some dried figs. Taste is caramelly, candy-sweet, burnt sugar but alcohol is covered well. Salty feel comes out as well. Not my favourite style but drinks well.

650ml bottle. Pours a clear dark amber with red hue and a small, creamy, short lived, beige head that leaves spotty lacing. Sweet aroma of caramel malt, toffee and vanilla. Sweet flavour of caramel malt, toffee, butterscotch, vanilla, light roast, chocolate and a hint of salt in a dry finish. Medium body with a sticky texture and soft carbonation. Nice.

Can from Taniguchi. A sea salted caramel version of a scotch ale that fills my thistle glass with amber brown goodness. The light beige heads doesn’t linger but does leave a ring of film behind. The aroma is syrupy caramel, bread pudding and salt. Medium to full bodied with a sharp burnt toffee caramel then a mouth-smacking salt edge melding into chocolate notes. This pretty much nails salted caramel with charred/burnt accents but it feels like it’s a touch cloying or artificial. Yep, I just checked the label and the salt is real but the caramel flavor is fake... well from some kind of concentrate. Shame but it’s still a pretty good brew. It definitely reminds me of a bunch of other of these "food" type brews but I can’t recall which one, maybe one of those Rogue voodoo donuts ones?

Can from The Beerhive. Clear amber body with a thin off-white head. Steady carbonation. Faint lacing. Aroma of salted caramel, sugary tea and toffee. Flavour of stewed apple, brown sugar and fig. Thin to medium body with a slick texture. Lively fizz. Very sweet and flavoursome.
