Four Peaks Kilt Lifter Scottish Amber

Aroma: 5 | Appearance: 5 | Mouthfeel: 6 | Flavor: 7 | Overall: 6

Pours dark, bubbly copper with a thick but effervescent buff head. Wimpy aroma offers toasted malt riding a smoky hint. Bolder flavor delivers more malt, and adds a caramel note, though the smoky character remains shy. Mouthfeel features average body and fizz, and a bit of woody hops in the finish. Not outstanding, but enjoyable.

Clear copper pour, low carbonation, and a petite white head. No lacing. Caramel aroma and flavour, that's all. Thin mouthfeel. Caramel flavour, sweet finish. Not so good.

Fascinating that this was on tap at every place I stopped on a recent trip to Phoenix. A nice alternative to the usual macros on tap but nothing special. Malty, sweet flavor and aroma; just not something I want multiple pints of.

Deep amber pour with thin white head. Fair amount of lace on the glass. Creamy taste with a sweet finish. Is this a true Scottish ale? No. Is this a pleasant beer to drink? Absolutely. Courtesy of The Keg Tucson. Thank you Chuck Norris!

Not a great Scottish ale... copper to brown color with a faint ring of a head and little lacing. Sweet caramel aroma, but thin to the pallette and oddly slick. Flavor was caramel and toffee, but weak.

Pours a deep brown color. Smell is sweet, malty. Taste is malty, molasses, sweet and easy drinking. Feels medium bodied in the mouth and overall; is an enjoyable beer.

Not much of a scotch ale at all, no telltale peat or richness. It was a golden brown colored, slightly corny smelling and tasting beer. It was way too light to lift any kilt, over-hopped for the style and just not that great.

Tasted on National Tartan Day, April 6 - Lifted from pfoxyjohn's Bar(n) after IrishPfist. Nice clear ruby-amber-brown pour with an ample creamy head and lacing. Sweet malty aroma, caramel and toffee, hint of fruitiness, very light on the hops. Taste is malty sweet, caramelly, hint of breadiness and honey, lightly hops - very easy to drink. Only thing missing with this beer is any peated or smokiness that come from the truer Scottish Ales. This one drinks more like an Irish Red except not as dry. Still a good thirst quencher but left me wanting a touch more. Thank John for leaving this out for me to pilfer. It does technically mark off Arizona for me (again) so it does have another purpose.

Found this one in the PHX airport last week, just 10 hours after I had my first AZ beer in over 10 years. Nice dark copper clear color with ok lacing and foam. This one is mostly watery sweet and not all that exciting. My second az beer and so far in last place. Light body and not very carbonated. One dimensional malt flavor and that's it. meh.

I was a little hesitant to try this one as I do not often like Scottish Ales too much alcohol taste. I was nicely surprised by the mildness of this one. The sweetness and the malt flavor came through with out a high ABV overpowering. The color and the lacing were among this ales strong points as well.
