Commercial Description:
Cask: Regular. The bottled version has a separate listing.
Brewed with lager malt and Hersbrücker and Challenger hops. Fermented with a lager yeast, but treated in every other way as a cask ale, save for a week or two of cool conditioning prior to release.
Named after the misty mountain near Pitlochry. Has won numerous awards as a cask conditioned beer, including three times gold winner at the Great British Beer Festival.

Cask @ Akkurat, Stockholm: Golden coloured. Huge white head. Fresh and hoppy aroma. Some fruity present. Flavour is very refreshing. Hops, fruit, vague herbal notes and some malt. Has a medium bitterness in the end. Extremely better than the bottled version.

Draught version in Weatherspoons Standing Order, Edinburgh. Thick creamy sparkler head. Great pilsnery aroma with resiny, citric, fruity, hoppy smells. Mouthfeel much smoother due to cask conditioning and sparkler. Cracking beer. 7 4 7 4 16

Cask conditioned - handpump - JDW Northampton. A golden coloured beer. The aroma is citrus sharp hop. The taste is a bit of a fruit salad with banana, lemon and grapefruit notes. Not obviously a lager, it is much too classy.

Clear gold with a white head. Very fruity flavour, heaps of tropical fruit. Decent bitter finish. Quite unrefined but still tasty.

In wetherspoons so had to get any aroma due to the smokey atmosphere. However the taste is fresh, smooth, hoppy, but not too bitter, well balanced has a certain sweetness to it aswell. Finish was slightly juicey too, not as dry as expected concidering the amoutn of hopps. Hopefully i can have this as a session beer somewhere sometime as it would be great for such an occasion.
