A medium bodied Scottish style red ale, this beer has a rich malty flavour with layers of chocolate & roasted malts and just enough English hops for balance.

Go Chiefs! Clear, mahagoni colit and a small off-white head. Sweet nose of honey and caramel. Taste is also honey, toffee and caramel. Sweet-herbal finish.

Can, 5% ABV. Clear reddish amber with a small beige head that's soon gone. Aroma of brown sugar, some dried fruit. Thin. Sweet with vague caramel, grape lollies. Not much malt flavour really; just hollow. Slight gently spiced bitterness.

I can't get past the cloying sweetness of this one. There's some pepper and citrus that I quite like, together with nuts, but the sweet malt is overpowering.

On draft at the Grizzly Paw Brew pub it is a light Amber color with a slight head. The aroma is malty and the taste is weak watermelon.

341ml bottle from the sampler pack bought at their store in Canmore, poured at 2.4 celcius. minimal head and okay brown body. Soft aroma of cheezies, stinky malts, nuttiness. Flavour is sweet mustiness and hazelnut sugar mixed with molasses.Drinkable but not worth remembering.

341 ml bottle. (5% ABV) Pours a clear, reddish amber with a small, short lived, tan head that laces. Light aroma of roasted malt and caramel. Sweet flavour of roasted malt, caramel and a hint of nuts with a slightly dry, bitter finish. Light to medium body with a watery texture and soft carbonation. Mediocre.

Bottle at Santa Lucia Trattoria, Canmore. Deep ruby pour with a tiny tan head that is quickly gone. Nose is toffee and bready malts. Nice sweet start with caramel and some red fruit with some mild bitterness. Quite light and watery mouth with quite soft carbonation.
