Oct 22, 2007 Pours a pretty translucent copper amber with a medium white frothy head. The aroma is sweet, caramel, and herbs. The flavor is fairly sweet, not too much substance to it. An earthy herbal character, some caramel. Fairly light and easy to drink. A pleasant beer, definitely better than the Grozet.

Apr 13, 2002 An interesting story behind a very refreshing ale. Uncarbonated, unhopped, earthy tribute to a Scottish legend. I’ve never tasted (or smelled for that matter) Heather, but it makes an incredibly light and pleasing ale. Nice and dry at the end. I had it cask-conditioned and enjoyed its unique aroma and taste. I thought it smelled clover-like. Can’t wait to find it bottled.

Apr 13, 2006 Pours a light copper with a tiny eggshell head. Aroma of ginger, floral hops, sweet caramel malts--ginger is predominant. The taste follows the aroma into a slightly bitter finish. Nothing to write home about.

Jul 21, 2002 Expected much more from this highly acclaimed beer. Floral nose is interesting, but uneventful pour and lack of generosity in the flavor is a little disappointing. Nice sweetness in aftertaste but little else where it counts.

Sep 22, 2005 Poured from the bottle at The White Horse in Parsons Green, a light orange with no head. A spicey/fruity aroma with hints of oranges. The flavour is a lot like heather smells (funny enough), a little honeyish. A bit too carbonated unfortunately and a tanginess left in the mouth. A long lingering aftertaste though, and enjoyably different.

Mar 26, 2008 500 ml. Hazy, beautiful burnt orange with a two-finger cap that lasts well. Slight aroma of grassy honey and caramel, then later some peat. Flavor is oddly back and forth from earthy-spicy caramel apple to dryish floral herbs. The floral component shows up more in the aftertaste. Near-medium body is smooth, dryish, and a bit tingly. This unique brew is well-crafted.
