Shared 22 oz. bottle. Dark brown with a beige head. Aroma of bread, malt, scotch and wood. Taste follows nose. Decent but not one of the better scotch ales out there.

Draft at Park Cambridge, MA on18 July, 2015. Mostly cloudy gold color with thin head in branded Portico glassware. Aroma is mild floral hops, corn, notes of honey.

The flavor will not give you any surprises, pale malt and grain base giving notes of honey and corn/ grain.

Body is lighter as this lager should be. The one nice character is that the hop profile is slighter lager then what the style guidelines call for. Don’t misunderstand, It is not overly hopped, just enough to make it slightly different then every other in the style. A light lingering floral note to cut the sweetness. I drained the glass easily and could session this with the best in style.

cask-tan big bubbles-dark brown. A-sweet med malt-roasty/toffee, med fruit, some earthy. T- sweet med malt-roasty/wood, med fruit, some earthy hops.

An amber wit with a thin white head. In aroma, a strange cherry flavoured Halls drops with seltzer, chalk and light bilious notes. In mouth, a smooth sweet cherry banana with epsom salts, a bit of grape bubble gum, not bad. On tap at Somerville Summerfest, July 14 2012.
