Tap in Portland. Amber color with a laced white head. Vineous flavors. I did not find this beer all that interesting.

Fantastically aromatic - the heather really shines. A smoother and cleaner maltiness than Fraoch, with a more assertive floral presence and complexity. Lighter body makes quaffing easier, too.
