Commercial Description:
Bottled, pasteurised, 500ml;
A light coloured, moreish ale brewed with the finest Maris Otter Hops and Crystal Malts. A hint of torrified wheat is added producing a satisfying and complex flavour. A fresh dry aftertaste is supported by a fairly hoppy character.

Bottle. Amber with a small head. Aromas are sweet biscuit malts with crisp citrus, especially grapefruit. Some strange acidity. Flavours are sweet grain and citrus with a misplaced acidity on the finish. Still decent despite being a bit odd.

(Bottle 50 cl) Courtesy of Ungstrup. Pours a slightly hazy amber golden with a rough, off-white head. Oxidized aroma of sherry and overripe fruit. Medium body, the mouthfeel is soft and carbonation very low. Caramel and overripe fruit. Almost no bitterness. Nice. 160408

Gold. I get a little caramel in the aroma with some cardboard and metal to the forefront. Sweet, dusty, nutty taste, quite pleasing, despite the fizz. Slight bitterness. As it says on the label, ’Blar Allt a Bhain-Chniuc’, though I’m none the wiser.

Hazy amber with tiny off white head. Sweet fruity aroma with honey an vinious notes. Sweet vinious flavor with caramel and malty notes.
