Aug 22, 2007 Heather and BEER ! THESE are wierd. Earthy smells and flavors. I imagined the vikings drinking this before ransacking a villaging and killing its inhaitants. The poor picts didn’t standd a chance or maybe it was the scotts drinking the beer. Either way. vedry good

Aug 21, 2007 Bottle. Very fragrant. Lots of floral notes. The heather definitely stands out. There’s also some pine, herbs and wet forest. Pours golden/copper with a nice creamy white head. Some honey, grass, hay and malt on the palate. Body starts fairly full but finishes pretty watery. A nice beer, though.

Aug 20, 2007 Updated: Dec 27, 2007Lots of suspended particles sometimes but the color is nice. Smell of honey, flowers, and herbs. The Fraoch Heather Ale is like drinking the forest. Even if it is on the thin side, I believe it might be one of my favorite of the Heather beers. It is intensely herbal and wholly unique. Slight camphor taste. Dry and astringent. It’s also light and quaffable.

Aug 20, 2007 Bottle, Had this in a rather nice ceramicy old fashioned Fraoch mug/cup that I picked up with a bottle of Fraoch a few years ago, so unfortunately the colour is a bit of a mystery to me. Honey on the nose along with defiante floral notes. Tasted a little floral, some honey, and garden herbs. A good beer and despite having had this frequently it still remains a very interesting beer.

Aug 15, 2007 Bottle-Cloudy amber color w/a white head. Sweet floral aroma. Sweet malt flavor of fruit w/some traces of pine, grass, honey, & peat. Dry finish. Drinkable, but unspectacular. Just not much to it.

Aug 9, 2007 (Bottle) Pours hazy light amber. Spicy, floral and almost a bit bubblegum like aroma with tones of heather, mint and sweet gale. A bit earthy. Rather sweet and fruity with red apples up front but also some notes of sweet pears. Spicy and floral flavour with heather, mint and sweet gale. Quite malty and light sour. Abrupt finish. Light to medium mouthfeel and body.
