Bottle. Gorgeous pour. Deep red with luscious head. Stunning lattice-work looks like the Alhambra. Nice bright herbal hop in the aroma. Subtle, clean, crisp like a forest in fall. Slight berry tartness. Flavors also include hints of berry. Solid bittering hops. Finishes with raspberry. Not my favorite of the Orkneys but solid, clean, and good.

Clear medium to dark amber color with a average, frothy - creamy, good lancing, mostly lasting, off-white head. Aroma is moderate malty, toasted, roasted, smoke notes. Flavor is moderate sweet and bitter with a average duration. Body is medium, texture is oily, carbonation is soft. (180508)

Jun 25, 2008 Not to much carb... nice dark color. Slightly watery vanilla malty flavor with. the is a a very weak woody lingering taste too. The weak carb stays on your tongue a little while along with the flavor. Good stuff.

Jun 2, 2008 Beautiful dark brown pour with a touch of red. Nice solid tan head and good lacing. Solid malt flavor with a touch of sour bitterness in the back of the throat.

May 25, 2008 Amber with a lasting off-white head. Fruity and caramel aroma. Dry and grainy flavour with a little caramel. Pretty ordinary.

May 20, 2008 A brown amber body with a big tan soapy head that resembles moon craters. Sweet caramel malt aroma. A nice bit of hop nicely balances the malt. It has notes of biscuit and molasses. Bitterness is moderate. One of those beers that makes one long for a Scottish pub.
