Bottle from Tomlinson’s beer shop, Inverness. It pours cloudy golden yellow, with a thin white head. The nose is creamy, orange, tangerine and light pepper. The taste is zesty citrus, orange marmalade, tangerine, spice/pepper and juicy fruits, with a dry finish. Medium body and soft carbonation. Smooth, juicy and pretty damn tasty.

[cask at Fountain Bar, Edinburgh] Pours clear gold, large white head. Bitter orange on the aroma, very much an orange citrus element to the flavour, with a biscuity sweetness in there. The finish is bitter orange rind – it gets progressively oily on the palate, but is very nice – having seen the tasting note relating to marmalade, it’s really got a lot on the flavour [31072012]

Rating #600
Golden amber, frothy white head, some lacing. Aroma of fruity malts, hint of hops. Taste of pale malts, light fruity malts, fairly bitter bit zesty hops, quite refreshing, simple flavours.
Palate - Quite bitter, thin body. Lingering finish
Overall - OK - run of the mill tbh

Bottle. Golden with white head. Pleasant aroma, some passion fruit, orange and a peppery spiciness. Taste is slightly less fruity, peppery, spicy and a nice earthiness. I was surprised at how nice this was, they’ve deffonitely done this hop justice
