Commercial Description:
Cask: Regular. The bottled version has a separate listing.
Brewed with lager malt and Hersbrücker and Challenger hops. Fermented with a lager yeast, but treated in every other way as a cask ale, save for a week or two of cool conditioning prior to release.
Named after the misty mountain near Pitlochry. Has won numerous awards as a cask conditioned beer, including three times gold winner at the Great British Beer Festival.

Cask at Chelmsford Winter BF. A yellow, fruity lager... something like a German Helles left out to go warm and flat. I mean that in the best possible way. Lemony, grainy, nutty, moderately bitter, quaffable but plenty of bite to it. A tasty outlier.

Cask-conditioned at the Portcullis, Bristol 3/2/09. Pale gold with a decent white head. Aroma started sweet, with some hay and floral hops. Flavour had some orange blossom, citrus fruit and a decent bitter finish. Good stuff.

From cask at the Halfway House. Pours clear yellow with a dense creamy white head. Light malty and fruity hops aroma. Flavour starts mild sweet with a nice fruity hops note. Light malty note with a mild bitterness coming through. Smooth fruity finish. Nice, easy and quite lovely.

Cask at the Green Man, Stamford. One of the best pale lagers I’ve had, my enjoyment of this was not spoiled by the know-it-all at the bar (punter, not staff) who took pleasure in telling me how this was "like a lager" but that I shouldn’t expect it to be cold and fizzy. It tastes of sweet fruits with a hint of citrus rind and spice.

Blackfriars, Inverness, cask. Nice hazy golden colour/light yellow. Thin head. A taste of citrus fruits, lemons. Hint of orange. Nice smooth finish. A fantastically refreshing beer...
