      Ruby red, moderate head. Toasty, chocolatey, herbal-hoppy aroma. Medium-big body. Rich caramel malt flavor. Some sticky vegetal hop flavor like Samuel Smith's. Warming finish. Some acetaldehyde as it warms.

      Overall Impression (3½)
      Deep copper color, moderate carbonation, nice thick head. Smoky aroma, caramelly, a little hoppy. Big body, some caramel flavors, but rather metallic. Dries out the tongue, but doesn't feel like alcohol. Caramelly-sweet finish that gets smoky as it goes down. Jackson describes Old Jock as "something between an English barley wine and a Scottish wee heavy."
