3.2 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Cask at Bow Bar. It pours clear amber with a medium white head. The nose is bread, pithy citrus, orange, lemon and a touch of pine. The taste is grainy, grapefruit, orange rind, bread, light spice with a bitter finish. Medium body and soft carbonation. Taste doesn’t quite live up to the vibrant smell. Still, ok.

Yep, critic and orangy faith a full orange shine. Decent acidity but a bit holo in the middle and when it does connect it is a bit disjointed and in need of integration

Cask @ The Bon Accord. Golden amber colour, good head. Cream grain aroma. Cereal resin malt flavour. Creamy with grapefruit aftertaste. Good golden ale.

[cask at Stockbridge Tap, Edinburgh] Clear as a bell, golden pour. Nice white head. Got the classic Citra nose of mammoth grapefruit and zingy sharpness. Similar on the flavour. Not as rounded as Jarl, maybe, but still a great beer, nonetheless. Fantastic dry finish following the citrus jolt to the tastebuds [12122012]
