Peculiar Scot-styled ale finds early charred wood affluence and Scotch malt waver seized by dull port wining. By thin finish, muted raisin-fig dip gives way to acrid orange-tangerine blotch and spicy cardamom splotch. On second passing, erratic fruited whiskey coarsening and sharp prune-fig pungency undermine musty peat earthiness.

Satisfying perfume-wafted Scottish ale with usual suspects (caramelized malts, roasted barley, and cracked wheat) entwining sour-candied orange tang above mildly creamy tranquility.

Rich brown-bodied creamy-headed Scottish ale brings thick molasses malting to yeasty sourdough presence, dried tobacco nuance, and light Scotch finish. A tad watery, but honey nut sweetness and floral hop pleasantries fill out backend.

Heavily carbolic billowy-headed rust-hued full-bodied ale with creamy facade, white wine fragrance, and candied Scotch influence. Sinewy yeast absorbs fizzy orange peel mist. Chewy and rich but lacking assertive malt finish. Compares favorably to Mac Andrews Scotch Ale.

Reddish copper glow, sweet barley waft, and candied butterscotch mouthfeel introduce caramelized medium-bodied merriment. Cracked wheat-peat backdrop corrupts sullied apple-dried banana midst and herbal-clove conflux to buttery hazelnut chocolate finish.

Mildly sweet Scotch malt-dominated nickel-hued 80 Shilling Ale with billowing fleshy head integrates rustic smooth-watered mineral grained sharpness with rising fig-date overture. Approaching grape-nut parch and dry rye tease befit herbal honey tea finish. Needs thicker texture to subjugate tinny flow.

Alcohol-fueled pearly-headed mahogany-hued ale suffuses ashen black chocolate bitterness with caramel-grained sweetness. Heavy hop eruption outlines Scotch malt thickness, increasing syrupy texture of fine alternative to Sam Adams Scottish Ale.

A beautiful mellow ale highly recommended. Resounding 9% alcohol thrust provides sweet caramel-burnt Scotch warmth enhancing black chocolate-toffee eruption to rich fig-prune depth. Barley-hop bed secures mocha, praline, and pecan illusions to imperious smooth whiskey finish.

Brewers since 1719, Belhaven offers subtly charming ales, but this one’s somewhat bland for frothy mocha-scented Scottish-styled Ale. Moderately bitter hop herbage grazes pithy roasted malts and peaty dewiness. But polite earthen grain finish diminishes quickly, smoked nuttiness fades and ripe berry nuances scatter.

Smooth buttery caramel malt sweetness and dry powdered chocolate variance inform fine light-to-medium-bodied Scottish ale.

Poured into the glass, this 6.5% alcohol-fueled Wee Heavy maintains a fuzzy head and creamy body. Peculiar mocha-grained brown-sugared raisin murk thickened by buttery caramel malt residue before bourbon-port finish flutters away.

Musty medium-bodied amber-toned Scottie barely overcomes nebulous nature. Fizzy chocolate malt graze, scattered floral-fruited spicing and resinous hop plod lead to uninterestingly slim peat-grained finish, becoming sulfuric. Brewer’s best selling flagship beer is strictly for lunkheads.
