12oz can, stamped 15 on the bottom. Pours transparent dark amber with a small beige head which fades to a thin strip. Smells of caramel, sweet malt, and oak; good intensity and complexity. The taste follows closely with malt, caramel, oak, and earthy hops. Some decent dryness. Below average carbonation and average body. Overall, it's a good Scotch Ale that stays fairly true to the style. Could have used some more caramel sweetness, but the oak was nice; it reminded me of a BA beer.
