Experience the best of everything with """"""""the cream of Scottish beer"""""""". Its light creamy head with lacing to the bottom of the glass gives you a taste that’s refreshing and moreish with a hint of hop.

Canned version. Light brown, with a lasting medium white head. Aroma of light crystal malt, which carries over into the flavor. Silky feel. If you like the smell and taste of fresh malted barley, this is pretty good.

From tap at Winstons. Pours clear and golden orange with a small and dense white head. Roasted malty aroma. Light breadish flavoured with a roasted malty and slight caramelish note. On the mild dry side. Light bitter and slight citric into the finish.

This one is nothing special, along with the low aroma its got the normal smooth malts and low hops, its decent.

Reminded me of a Boddingtons. The widget went off and a creamy white head ensued. Does have a honey colour. Abit fish oily and sweet with a few citrus notes. Could have more substance.
