Drat at TBBC. Abt according to Dave at 6.5%+ Pours copper-brown with thick tan head. Aroma of light malts. Taste, malty, brown sugar, caramel. Light hops leaving a nice smooth mouthfeel. Molasses and light spices. A little on the weak side for a scotch ale.

Pours deep deep copper, nearly amber with thin white head. The aroma is rather wort like before the hops are added. But overall its very light. The flavor is sweet roasted malts, faint hint of biscuit and the lightest bitter hop presence around the edges. There may also be a slight smoky flavor to it.
