About This Beer
Cue the bagpipes, because this peated ale is even more breathtaking than the rolling hills of Scotland itself!
Tasting Notes
Take a sip, and delicious notes of dates, toffee, and raisins come charging out like an army of kilt-clad Highlanders. And thanks to an extended stint in whiskey barrels, smoky single malt flavors blend beautifully with warming bourbon tones and a kiss of oaky vanilla.

One of my favorite styles only improved with barrel aging. Bourbon, molasses and brown sugar upfront with a malty, oaky and dark fruit finish. I wish that I had purchased more!

Full-bodied, a wee heavy, and super malty...just the caramely treat you expect from a great scotch ale.

It's good, not quite what I'm looking for. Definitely good though.

I wish I would have aged it a year, I should have bought more of them to try.

Massive nose of maple, birch sap, brandied cherries, sweet vermouth and espresso. Syrup-thick mouthfeel with flavors of toffee, butter brickle, Christmas pudding, treacle syrup and peated Scotch. Wishing I had another one of these in my cellar!

Very nice roasted malt aromas, with the whiskey barrel to back it up. Nice flavors of dark fruit, brown sugar or caramel. Sweet but not overly so, IMO. Good medium plus body. Very nice.

SO glad I bought three of these. Sweet, barrel-forward, malty goodness.

Too Sweet and the barrel got lost

What a great combination of a scotch ale with whiskey barrel aging. Each element came through in the aroma and flavor but with a really nice balance that made an excellent smooth full flavored beer.

This one was a gamble for me. I'm not usually a fan of whiskey barrel aged drinks. That being said, I'm glad I got this and wish I got more. Smooth ale up front mild whiskey burn going down. This stuff was damn good

Very strong!

The bourbon is strong with this one. So’s the caramel and dates, but good dates, not bad dates like in Raiders of the Lost Ark. 🍻

Really delicious, notes of caramel and dates and figs and brown sugar. Almost more of a barleywine than a Scotch ale.

After having this several times followed by other similar beers, it became clear to me that I’m not a fan of scotch beers.

finally a scotch ale that slept in a whiskey barrel… smooth and malty with notes of raisins and cacao. Not tasting peat but I still got Highland Park🥃, Slainte
