Cask at the Globe Inn, Aberdeen. It pours clear golden - yellow with a white cap. The aroma is soft, smooth, fragrant, chamomile,. honeysuckle, sponge cake, biscuit and fruit crumble. The taste is crisp, dry, zingy, zesty, lemony citrus, yuzu, pithy, fragrant, floral, chamomile, peppery spice, touch grassy and slightly soapy. Finish is dry and zippy. Light body and soft, fluffy cask carbonation. Quite vibrant and quenching. Quite a unique cask offering.

Keg at Stewart Brewing in Loanhead - clear gold with a slight white head. Flowery start to this one, loads of lemony hops and grassy herbs and a feint touch of juniper at the back. Was also available on cask.

Can from Against The Grain. Clear golden body with a thick white head. Steady carbonation. Faint lacing. Aroma of flower petals and vanilla. Flavour of straw and earth. Thin body with a slick mouthfeel. Soft fizz. Subtle and interesting.
