Notes:
Brooklyn completely changed the recipe in 2006. Its now a Scottish-style ale. Brewmaster Garrett Oliver explained to us that: There are no spices at all. Good British floor malts and hops along with our yeast strain account for all the flavors. It has a Scottish-style cooler fermentation, which pushes malt to the forefront rather than fruitiness. It was brewed with Scottish Floor-malted Maris Otter, English crystal malts, Belgian Aromatic malt, American roasted malts, American oats and hopped with Willamette.

Pours a dark amber with decent white foamy head.
Very aromatic, with sweet/fruity scents...thought it was a Belgian.
Taste is very bready, maybe too bready, with a malty, but almost wine-like finish. Alcohol actually sticks out a bit the further into the beer, a slight burn that I really didn't expect.
Overall this beer really didn't click with me, nothing overwhelmingly bad about it, but nothing that would make me want to buy it again...the taste just wasn't there, not really balanced.
