Bottle Inspection: Very basic label on a brown bomber. No abv, date, nothing.
Aroma: Strong fruity esters with some slight smoke and a touch of celery.
Appearance: Strong carbonation streams feed an overly large head of tan that tops an amber glass.
Flavor: Bubble gum? Very Belgian in flavor with some nice malty notes, but no peat characteristics noted.
Mouthfeel: Carbonation level is too high.
Overall Impression: A very tasty beer. The Belgian notes take it out of style, but I really enjoyed the flavor. Id drink more!

Appearance: Pours a clear, reddish-brown, effervescent body with a small, very short-lived off-whtie head.
Smell: Basic aroma of dark caramel and a touch of fruit, all of it kinda wimpy.
Taste: Dark caramel maltiness with a slight sweetness. Hint of tart fruits. Abrupt finish; the beer ends before it really gets going.
Mouthfeel: Medium-thin body. Medium carbonation.
Drinkability: Pretty mild, even by Scottish Ale standards.

Bottle courtesy of Crizay. Thanks man!
Pours a clear copper color with a light beige big lasting head. Smell is bright fresh malt and maybe a faint hint of smoke? Taste is faintly tart, and hoppy for the style. Thin malt flavor and a light smokiness in the background. Hoppy and light smokiness make this nice and unique version but the body and flavor otherwise is a touch on the thin side. Still pretty decent overall.

Appearance: Deep amber in color, fairly clear, with a large white head, which retains well, and profuse carbonation.
Aroma: Fruity esters are quite prominent, with a bready malt character, and candy sweetness, and notable spiciness.
Taste: Spicy bubblegum notes at the open, as would be expected from a Belgian ale, quite malty throughout. The finish is dominated by spicy notes, dark fruit, alcohol, and a lingering mild bitterness. There is none of the earthy characteristic commonly fould in Scottish ales.
Mouth feel: Smooth and very full, with an almost syrupy presence.
Drinkabililty/notes: Rather off-style, but still interesting and quite pleasing. The Belgian characteristics may result in part from yeast selection.
Many thanks to HardTarget for sharing this unique beer.
