I think that this bottle was passed on by Craig aka cgarvieuk, either that or it came from Westholme Londis Stores, Goring-on-Thames, Oxon whatever I will say cheers to Craig. This was consumed in a field at Towersey Festival over the w/e of 20th-25th August 08 Pours light gold colour some lovely smokiness on the nose and in the mouth, mmhhh, smells of the seaside, nice oakiness, a lovely beer, though I seem to be going against the tide of opinion with this rating, I loved it.

(6/29/08) Bottle sample at RBESG08 grand tasting in Plzen. Golden color. Aroma of hops, some resin and some oak notes. Sweetish flavor at first with a bit of malt, later, some slightly citrusy hoppiness mixed with scotch and some wood. Medium-bodied.

(Bottle) Pours pale yellow. The aroma is heavily oaky and whisky-like with a sweet fruitiness in the background. The flavour is also heavily oaky and whisky-ish with a light fruitiness way in the back. Strong aftertaste of whisky. Medium bitter and dry. Medium bodied. If you like watery whisky this will be your bag, but if you want a beer experience, you will be disappointed.

Bottle. Golden with a small head. Aromas are sweet caramel with cream and vanilla. Lightly woody with strong whisky. Soft citrus fruit with some pine and strong alcohol. Flavours are very smoky and woody. Evident whisky notes with grapefruit bitterness. Some floral notes with spices and a dry finish. Very smooth hoppy whisky.
