275)  Home:  Ola Dubh Special Reserve 30 by Harviestoun of Scotland:  ***;  we are up to the beer aged in barrels once used to mature Highland Park's 30 year old single malt whisky;  as it was with previous editions, this is almost impossibly dark and rich with notes of whisky, coffee and chocolate;  the whisky notes are stronger here than in the previous entries;  it's just about as good a beer as you can find for $14.95 a bottle;

Interestingly, C'est What stocks Highland Park's 12 year old scotch.  I will be keeping an eye out for this line in my travels.
