Nov 19, 2007 Surprisingly pale for a bitter, more golden than amber. Maybe it’s because I had this after the Old Ale, but I found it quite thin and unremarkable.

Nov 14, 2007 Bottled. A copper coloured beer with a white head. The aroma is woody and pretty malty. The taste has some tobacco and bready malts. Quite earthy and noticeably Scottish.

Sep 17, 2007 Aroma is a sweet thin malt scent. Color is a deep almost brown gold with very good carbonation and a thick tight head. Taste is smooth and bitter. Starting with a medium body it goes down smooth with a crisp feel on the back. Finish comes in with a creamy malt flavor that is backed nicely with a faint hop flavor and mellow bitterness. Aftertaste is just a touch dry with a very faint smoke taste. This is a tasty brew but not as bitter as I though it would be

Sep 10, 2007 Bottled 50cl. It pours a clear golden beer with a small whitish head. Honey, caramel, sorbet, hay and a hint of burnt tyres in the aroma. Quite a lot of hay, sorbet and marmite in the taste. A good hop presence. Light-bodied. Floral. Good lacing. The finish is dry and bitter with a hint of caramel.
