    A thick black beer. I was thinking more stout than porter if truth be told. The head is thin, off-white, and lasts. The aroma is burnt malt, burnt sugar, and some chicoree. The flavour is thin with hints of roasted malt and coffee.

    Bottled. Very dark ruby red colour with big beige fluffy/foamy head. Aroma is roasted malts, coffee, chocolate, some smoked wood and mild acidic notes. Flavour is coffee, roasted malts and soem smoked wood. The smoke sits for long in the finish and aftertaste. A quite nice brew, even though a bit watery.

    The first of three new Scottish beers at "Smokeless Joe's" in Toronto. I tried this beer on March 20, 2008. The beer poured a blackish-brown with a creamy tan head that lasted throughout. The aroma was roasted malt, some licorice hints, and some hops. The mouthfeel was medium bodied, with medium carbonation, and some sourness on the sides of the tongue. The flavour was malty, and nutty with continued sourness.

    500 ml bottle, bought at Vinens Verden, Odense, Denmark. Very dark brown with a reddish hue, decent light tan head. Moderate but very pleasant aroma of roasted barley and oatmeal, hints of dark chocolate and liquorice, seaweed, tar and woodwork. Roasty flavour with distinct elements of tar and peaty smoke, notes of coffee and dark bitter chocolate. Can’t detect the honey, not very sweet. Mouthfeel is acceptable but could have been fuller. Moderate roasty aftertaste. All in all an enjoyable brew.
