Cask (handpump) @ Moulin Hotel/ Pub, Moulin by Pitlochry PH16. Reddish amber colour. Fruity aroma with barley and lychees. Obviously very fresh. Dry minerally finish. Good stuff.

imdownthepub (8470) - Banbury, Oxfordshire, ENGLAND - DEC 16, 2003
Cask conditioned at The Moulin Inn, Moulin. Deep amber with good head. Rich sweet malty beer in the Scottish style, a little tangy fruit almost sourish. Smooth sweet finish, not really a bitter. Strange beers up here never get called Culloden Fields or King Edward! Just a thought.

From cask at Bon Accord. Pours clear and golden orange with a creamy and slight off-white head. Light caramel malty with a light acidc note showing through. Caramel malty and towards breadish dry flavoured. Holds mild bitterness and a light acidic touch into the finish. Smooth and roasted to light acidc malty finish.

Maria (9569) - Thisted, DENMARK - FEB 10, 2007
It was with excitement I tasted this "genuine" Braveheart, that has the same recipe as the Danish Braveheart from Midtfyn Bryghus. It was in Pitlochry in Scotland on Moulin Hotel and from cask. The color is nice and warm amber, and the head is creamy and lasting. The aroma is crisp and fruity. The flavour is smooth and fruity with notes of caramel, honey and a light bitterness. A bit weak in the overall impression, but still way ahead of the Danish version, unless it has become better since I tasted it.

3 April 2011, on tap at brewpub. Med yellow/gold colour, clear w no bubbles. Coppery pub ale aroma. Red fruit and copper. Med body, slightly fizzy and watery finish. Sweet nutty malt. Just a session malt albeit pretty decent. Not too sweet, not too coppery.

Cask at the Moulin. Light blond. Fruity aroma with barley and lychees. Obviously very fresh. Dry minerally finish. Good stuff. Served from the ’Braveheart’ tap but I found it virtually indistinguishable from the Light.

Caytinator (577) - Tucson, Arizona, USA - JUL 22, 2012
1/2 pint @ Moulin. Strong hoppy & malty smell, light amber coloration. Simple taste, a bit sour & hoppy, not too sweet. Good complex taste profile, I enjoyed it thoroughly!
