On gravity at Swindon BF 30/10/08. Deep amber in colour with a decent, off-white head. Aroma of citrus hops, caramel and grass. Flavour had a touch of sweet malts, plenty of grapefruit and a green, herbal edge before a decent bitter finish. Good stuff.

Rastacouere (6045) - Montreal, Quebec, CANADA - SEP 21, 2007
Clear light orange. Lasting large off-white head that sticks to the glass. Highly grainy, tasty cerealic ale. Sweetish caramel leanings barely balanced by light floral hops. Light-medium bodied, moderate carbonation. An easy-going, sweetish Scottish ale without difficulties.
