undercurrent25 (447) - Barnton, Cheshire, ENGLAND - OCT 12, 2010
Pours well with a thick head and brown colour, tastes slightly citrusy with a hint of soap suds, not a great example of what should be a session bitter

Quand’ero in Scozia ne bevevo dei litri, e mi piaceva abbastanza; ero un pò niubbo ma vabeh.. sempre meglio di una lager del cazzo

patrick767 (2772) - fort wayne, Indiana, USA - MAY 17, 2010
tap at the Claymore in Stirling - Pours amber with a lasting off white head. It smells of toasted caramel malt. The flavor is much the same and is pretty much all sweetness with minimal hops presence. Not bad.

Draught in Firenze. Pours translucent amber, with medium head and lacing. Smoky malt aroma, but metallic to the tongue. Not very memorable.
