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 @ YNWA, Kolding.
Pours lightly hazy golden with a nice, creamy, white head - good duration. Aroma has some rye, oranges, biscuits and light citric and earthy hops. Low carbonation - fine mouthfeel. Flavour is surprisingly fruity and light tart at the beginning. Turns soft and malty with a drying, burning spice and hops sensation. Perhaps it’s been on a bit too long?

Cask, Geordies Byre, Ayr. Golden colour with a creamy white head. Citrus fruit aroma with some hop. Slips down smoothly. Favour is quite complex; sweetish grapefruit with notes of herb and spice. Dryish finish. Very refreshing and not really in the typical lager fashion - to its credit. Very good stuff.

Tasting notes from 2003 harbury beer festival. This was my first cask lager. Hoppy aroma with some malt notes. Golden with thin white head. Fruiter than I expected. Dry finish.

Cask (Gallows Bird, Espoo, Real Ale Festival 2006) Golden, small head. Starts pleasant, citrusy and fruity. Alas something lagery takes over and makes it just a bit , erm, lagery.

Cask at Guildford Arms, Edinburgh. Deep golden colour. No head. Cigarette ashes in aroma and flavour. Very light odied. Fruity esters and dry hopiness.
