| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Oct 17, 2008 500 mL bottle poured into a mug. Slightly hazed goldenrod color with a very weak off-white head. Even with vigor this beer produces hardly any foam, and what little is there collapses within a minute.
Aroma strikes of rosemary and doughy malt. Reminds me precisely of rosemary sourdough bread dipped in olive oil.
Lightly malty with a honey sweetness and a dose of semi-bitter rosemary. Well-balanced.
Carbonation is moderate, body is medium-thin, finish is bone dry and short.
Quite drinkable but lacks complexity and doesn’t keep my interest very long. wyzzywyz22 (801), Wirral, Merseyside, England

Fruity fragrant aroma. Smooth mouthfeel. Flavour was on the sweet side with vague herb, spice and malt notes. Didn’t think I was going to like this, but its not bad at all.

| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | May 26, 2008 330 ml bottle. Pours a hazey orange or amber. Slight pumpkin or spice to the nose. I do like this beer although it is my least favorite of the Scottish Sampler pack. Still good though. DandyWolfFloyd (331), Jim Thorpe, Pennsylvania, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 5/5 | 14/20 | Aug 11, 2008 Aroma is sweet matls, with scant detectable hops, sweet fruits, suggesting berries, and figs. It’s color is a golden translucent color, akin to a cider, with a thin white collar. It’s flavor is a light sweet fruit and malt, with berries. The palate is like a champagne, light dry, w/ moderate effervescence. fidel (1015), Livermore, California, USA

| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Oct 5, 2009 Nice light ale that has a very large body to it suprisingly. Spicy flavor, maybe a little fruit, also a nice finish thats crisp. PaulHegedus (468), Georgetown, Ontario, Canada
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Dec 7, 2008 330ml bottle, served cellar temperature, golden in a goblet with a thick, full white head. I smell dandelion, honey, some grass, bread and butter, lots of flowers, pomegranate. The mouthfeel is a little thin and fairly flat, but this thing has great head retention and decent lacing. The flavour starts out a bit like soda, sprite, then the heather hits: very floral, light, grassy, with bitter fruit, cranberry, some nuts, lemon. hobbersr (413), Lethbridge, Alberta, Canada
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 2/5 | 15/20 | Sep 29, 2009 Pours a pale orange with a small head. Smells like apples, flowers, spice, biscuit, and cinnamon. Very nice smelling. The taste is decent, kind of like spiced apple juice. Mouth feel is almost flat. Enjoyable.
