My grading scale

It is subjective, but I think you'll be able to understand where I'm coming from:

1-3 "Horrible" : NEVER BUY THIS!!!! (Or buy it just to see what crappy beer tastes like.)

4-5 "Ok" : These beers need a little work. Usually from a company known for another type of brew.

6-7 "Good": It's ok, for now.

8-9 "Great" : Try this at least once, you'll be happy you did :D

10!!!!! "Godly" = This is attainable, but the most subjective of all grades. If I ever give a beer a 10 it'll be because it blows your mind.

Harviestoun Ola Dubh

This one looked special.  Aged in whiskey barrels from their 12 year whiskeys.  I wanted the darkest one they had and this looked good.

Look/Pour/Smell - Deep, charcoal, coffee, light chocolate.  Super dark.

Taste - How espresso is to coffee.  This is dark and deep, light chocolate, lots of coffee.  This would go good w/ a cigar.

Rating - 10
It's the deepest, darkest beer I've ever had.
