500ml bottle, explosive opening making a mess everywhere. Thankfully the beer seemed to be fine.
Pours a slightly unclear amber with a huge off-white head. Aroma is resinous, pine, grass, marmalade. Taste is again predominantly resinous, with citrus, orange, grapefruit, marmalade, biscuity malt base, bitter finish. Medium bodied.
A rocky but pleasant enough start for this new brewery.

Bottle from Westhill Service Station. It pours clear amber with a decent white head. The aroma is sappy, oily, resin, pine, lychee, pink Turkish delight, papaya and orange marmalade white bread sandwiches. The taste is dry upfront, mellow bitterness, bitter - sweet character, piney, sappy, resinous, pithy grapefruit, fragrant, grass, touch of lychee and biscuit with a drying, resinous finish. Average body and fluffy carbonation. Decent west coast inspired number.
