Commercial Description:
Cask; Occasional.
Greenmantle is the ale with which Broughton Brewery was founded in 1980, taking it’s name from the eponymous John Buchan novel. John Buchan spent a great deal of his childhood in the village of Broughton.
Greenmantle is a dark, bitter/sweet ale with a pleasant hop aftertaste.

Cask at Hafway House, Edinburgh. A golden beer with a thin white head. The aroma is sweet with light notes of both malt and caramel. The flavor is sweet malty with primary notes of caramel and a lightly bitter finish.

Large sparkler’s white head atop a clear golden body. Soft foamy palate is gently mineral, floral. The whole thing is simple and straightforward, but aptly refreshing and balanced. Even though the aroma is a bit limited, cerealic pale malts feel crisp enough and the hops surf on them with natural brilliance.

Cask at Halfway House, Edinburgh. Deep golden colour. Grassy hops dominate the flavour. Raw mouthfeel. Light citric with egg notes. Vented, yet again, to early?

Cask at Halfway House, Edinburgh. Deep golden. Grassy hops shine up a body consisting of buttery malt. Sweetish and fruity with medium body. Salty bitter finish. Fairly hoppy for a Broughton and with a fresh feel to it.
