A- Dark reddish brown color, semi-transparent, thin layer cream color head that faded quickly

S- Caramel malts, biscuits, buttery, sugar cane, very sweet

T- Sweet malts, creamy, caramel, buttery, hint of alcohol

M- Medium body, low/medium carbonation, crisp, clean, warming of alcohol at the end

D- Worth trying

This year's scotch ale is very good, although watch out because it does have a slight bite of alcohol (not too overpowering).

Pick up this growler after a brewery tour. Poured with a super frothy root beer float kind of head. The huge creme colored head stuck around for awhile and left lotsa lace. Aroma is of caramel, butter and faint alcohol. Taste is similar but very malty and the begging and end of the sip. A little hop twang hops in the middle.
Feel is creamy. Very drinkable. At the end of this glass im already feeling it watch out!
