Draft pour at Crucible, Woodinville. A dark cola brown pour, active carb, almost no head. Sweet, but surprisingly subtle malts and dark fruit aroma. Flavor is warming for sure. Cherry, touch of chocolate? Rich bready malts. It's boozy, but at 10.3% I expected it to be. I don't need my scotch ale to be that big, but it is what it is. I like the cherry note to it, and the late lingering smokey note makes this a truly interesting beer. I can easily look past the booziness of this. I enjoyed it.

On tap at Crucible, pours a deep dark mahogany with a small tan head. Aroma brings out lots of alcohol and some caramel, dark fruits. Flavour is very boozy and sweet, with intense phenols and sickly sweetness - the sweetness is from medicinal cherry cough syrup. Messy, boozy and harsh. Difficult to drink. Needs a lot of work.
