Dark hazy reddish-copper color with a thick off-white head that sticks to my glass. Bready and caramel aromas, starts sweet and creamy with a hint of caramel, medium bodied, nice full and round mouthfeel, finishes smooth and clean with a lingering sweetness, not bad.

A decent looking Scottish ale that is red amber-bodied and topped by a lovely ivory head and nice lacing. A typical Scottish ale this one tends to be a bit sweet in the start and the finish, but does have a nice light hopping to balance the malt to a substantial degree.

The feel is a bit mild and watery, owing as much, I suspect to the balance as it is to the carbonation and lightness of body. An enjoyable ale nonetheless and one I'd never be fearful of recommending.

Deep copper red color. Very nice lacy, rocky head, which stuck around for the whole glass.

Aroma is sweet and malty, with a hint of bitterness. Definitely some diacetyl and candied fruit aromas.

It is a mouth-filling beer, with a lovely malty roundness to it. Decent length, and the malt is not cloying, but it is rich. A bit of hop bitterness present, but just enough to add complexity. Could not drink a lot of this without the sweetness getting to you, but a couple with lunch was very nice.

A special brew for the 2d Annual St. Louis Scottish Games and Cutural Festival.
