Cask, at the pub next to the brewery (Sligachan, Scotland). Nutty and caramel malty nose. Clear, brown-red coloured with a perfectly creamy head. . Taste is sweet, caramel, has some hops, nuts also. And, I thought there was some peat in it as well. But after some days on the Scottish isles you smell peat everywhere.. Enjoyable brew.

I sampled a bottle of this at home after getting a pack as a gift. The beer poured nicely into a mug pint glass with a thick head and brown body. That’s about it, no nose to speak of, not even any taste; this was like drinking a pint of coloured water. I sampled another to make sure it wasn’t off, but this was the same. I tried another from a different batch a few weeks later to the same effect. This is a pint of coloured water.

Cask, Alloa Beer Festival. Nose is medicinal with a balance of malt and hop, some fruitiness. Mouth is sweet maltiness, false orange. Tasted bad.

Bottle at home. Dark amber with a moderate head. The aroma has notes of roasted malt, fruit, apple. I find the same notes in the flavour, that also has notes of caramel. There is a brief acidity in the middle and a nice bitterness generally. It’s too apple-juice-like and too thin.
