500ml bottle
Deep copper, small beige head. Bready, sweet malty aroma with touches of brown sugar, and some thick caramels. The flavor and finihs, not as nice. Wet paper, minerals, syrupy malts, soggy bread, low bitterness. Great aroma, flavor and finish are a let down,

Canette datée du 31-10-2016... Il y a une belle mousse moyennement dense de couleur crème. Le nez est composé de toffee, grains grillés et de vanille. Au goût, c’est sucré, bien malté et herbeux à la fois. L’alcool est peu perceptible et il y a une finale de noix. À mon goût personnel, c’est la meilleure de leurs offrandes que j’ai pu déguster.

Canned. Mahogany colour, small head. Dark bread, caramelized sugar, butter and dark cherries up front. Mid sweet with medium-full body and rounded, somewhat oily mouthfeel. Cherries, buttery, bready malt, brandy and notes of wood. Lightly peppery finish with some bitterness. A really good Scotch Ale, but doesn’t provide that ultra silky, deep mouthfeel that would make it stellar.

This was poured into a thistle.
The appearance was a ruddy burnt dark brown color with a good finger’s worth of white foamy head that dissipated at a good pace. No lacing.
The aroma takes a thick sweet peaty to smoky arrangement of sweet to a nice maltiness. Tea structures itself nicely in and around.
The flavor leans sweet and then packs in the full peaty/smoky to tea smoothness blending nicely over my tastebuds. Smooth sweet tea/peaty aftertaste. Sly tea structured finish.
On the palate, this one sat about a light to medium on the body with a great sessionability about it. Mild carbonation. Spectacular smoothness.
Overall, spectacular scotch ale that I would love to have again, definitely an ice fishing beer out of the can.

Bottle: Poured a light clear copper color ale with a nice large foamy head with good retention and some light lacing. Aroma of grainy notes with light residual sugar notes is pretty tame for the style. Taste is dominated by grainy cereal notes with no clear notes of caramel or toffee and light dry finish with almost no residual sugar notes. Body is really thin for the style with good carbonation. I usually like the product from this brewery but this one was a real letdown. Drainpour.
