Hand pull cask at Delaneys. Pours a hazy amber with a thin white head. Smells of resiny hops, some sweet caramel, peppery. Tastes lightly resiny with some mapley hints. definitely different.

Bottle. Thin fruity, metallic aroma. Clear golden colour with a thin white head. flavour of hops and fruit. The hop flavour is subtle. would like a little more for an IPA but still a pleasant ale.

blah... reminds me of alexander keiths... an IPA that should not be labeled as such. tastes like a pale lager, nothing great at all about this beverage.

About as bland as an IPA can get. Nothing worth mentioning. A poor try at the style Stay away. For a better scottish ale, try the McEwans or go with any American IPA like Rogues or Victory.

50 cl bottle. No yeast at the bottom. Amber colour with a nice but fast disappearing head. Sweet, fruity and floral aroma. Light but tasty flavour with notes of fruitness and sweetness. Ends up very light and not speciel bitter.

Amberish with a decent head. Floral, sweet aroma and flavor. Pretty sweet, finishes slightly bitter... pretty tasty. I’d say it’s more of an IPA (as is in its name) than a bitter (as it’s listed). Flavorful and a good summertime brew.

[Cask at Volunteers Arms, GBBF 2004] An orange beer with a fine but disappearing head. The aroma is quite flowery hoppy. The flavor is sweet malty with a slight note of fruit and also only a slight bitter end. A boring IPA.
