Seven varieties of malt combine to create complex flavors of candied figs, raisin and toffee with a hint of smoke. So intensely flavorful, it’ll inflate your bagpipes with every swig.

12 ounce can. Mahagony color topped by a big foamy beige head. Rich toasted malt nose, redolent of caramel and toasted nuts. Sweet roasted malt flavor has smoky notes. Sticky mouthfeel with roasty notes. Finishes with sweet cocoa and cola notes. A real winner. Worth seeking out.

355ml can from BrewDog online. Very dark brown with a small tan head. Rich malty aroma, caramel, dark chocolate, roast. Taste is also really malty, caramel and some dark fruit flavours, quite sweet with a bitter end. Really smooth mouthfeel. Not a big fan of this style of beer to be honest but it’s a good strong brew, and speaking of strong: I thought the alcohol was really noticeable in the taste, more so than other beers of similar strength.
