(Can - an Imperial Scotch Ale) Pours black with short lived loose tan head. Nice aroma with notes of dark toffee, candy, peat, pear drops, chocolate. Full bodied, smooth, sticky with fine prickly carbonation. Rich complex taste. There’s a dark toffee sweetness as a backbone to the flavour. There’s some burnt sugar bitter notes. There’s peaty whisky. There’s some fruity pear and raisin notes at the start. There’s some sweet milk chocolate notes in the mid palate. The alcohol is apparent but pretty well hidden for 14%. Not sure what heather tastes like so maybe I am not recognising it. Very well balanced and enjoyable.
