Commercial Description:
Only ratings for the cask conditioned version should go here. There is another entry for the bottled version.

A light golden, almost continental lager style beer with a gentle malt flavour. The variety of hops creates a subtle bitterness subsiding to a smooth flavour and aroma. The Cairngorm Mountains stand supreme in the heart of the Scottish Highlands, their vastness and natural unspoilt beauty and abundant wildlife set them aside as some of the finest mountains in Europe.

On tap at the Halfway House: Deep golden with a small creamy head, shy to moderate hoppy nose; light bitter-sweet flavour, light bodied; aromatic hoppiness returns in short bitter-sweet finish. a nice session-beer, but a bit thin........

Halfway house. Aroma is pale hints at biscuity malt, some honey fruit character, not overly sweet but i cant really find hops. Taste is similar though a noteable grassyness kicks in.
