Golden beer with an ok head, holds ok. Smell is decent spiced and hoppy, the taste is bitter grassy and hoppy. Not outbalanced. The soapy taste at the en is not my thing.

Bottle from Scottish Real Ale shop. Clear golden colour, white head. Aroma is slightly fruity and spicy. Flavour is malty, dry, some citrus, a bit of rubber. Slightly bitter and fairly dry finish.

An amber-blonde beer with plenty of condition and a thin white head. Peppery spicy hop aroma on the nose with some tangerine. Sweet and thin bodied with some banana and a hint of butterscotch. Sweet finish.

pours a rocky head that slowly fades\crystal clear, light yellow colour having a hard time finding any aroma can’t say it is sweet but it isn’t bitter or malty. forced to choose i’d go w/ bitter, more in the finish body is light/med, dry texture w/ soft carbonation maybe hints of peat. this is a session beer but a nice one. not complex but also not watery

UPDATED: MAR 31, 2011 Bottle at Port Ellen Whisky bar. a bit hazy and pale colour. white head. Great hops on aroma and flavour. Dont know if is the surroundings that make this beer seems so damn good. Quite sour and deliciously hoppy. some yeast flakes in the bottle.. once the yeast poured in glass taste softens.

Bottle. Golden yellow colour with a white head. Refreshing, citrus, fruit. Light body. Easy drinking.

Aroma of muscat, honey, rich malt, lemon. Very sour flavor, almost lambic. Lots of citrus, dry, tasty. Interesting, but not sure if it is supposed to be THIS sour.
