Tap @Draught 55, NYC as "Smoked Scotch"
Dark ruby color, small steady creamy beige head. Some smoke and vegetables in the nose. Medium-bodied. Smoked, dark malts, some caramel. Easy to drink, not very "Scotch".

Tap at the Ginger Man, thanks to James (jt) for the pour, 18/05/13. Clear chestnut brown with a thin beige head. Nose is toffee, sugars, woody notes. Taste comprises light smoke, spice, dark toffee, dark malts. Medium bodied with bite, fine carbonation, dry finish with a little bitterness and smoke. Decent.

I really liked this brew. Pours amber brown with small head and great nose of peat. Tastes super peaty, and smokey, with earth, light booze, vanilla, rye, and caramel. nice finish and slight warming. delightful.
