Keg half pint, at Maloneβs Irish Bar, Aberdeen. Copper colour, creamy off-white head. Moderate aroma, not much there. Very smooth flavour, moderately malty, with even more moderate but noticeable hops in the finish. Easy drinking.

500ml bottle at Ayre Hotel Restaurant in Kirkwall. A bright amber coloured body. Crocheted lacing from a medium beige head. Plain caramel nose. Taste of caramel as well with distant bitterness towards the ending. Easy going with the food (16.04.2016).

Keg at The Ball Room. Clear amber/brown body with an off-white cap. Good lacing. Aroma of grain, stewed tea and earth. Flavour of watery grain and twigs. Medium body with a smooth texture. Light fizz. Thereβs not much to it, but itβs drinkable and inoffensive.

Keg at Berts Bar.... It pours clear amber with a thick, creamy white head. The nose is toasty grain, cereal and generic maltiness. The taste is creamy, lightly toasted grain, touch sweetness, cereal and really not much else. Short finish. Medium body, fine carbonation and foamy mouth-feel. Looks good, but rather bland indeed. Inoffensive.

Tap at the Plockton Hotel, Plockton because ladies and gentlemen a rate is a fucking rate ! 19/10/13. Clear copper golden with a good sized light beige top. Nose is pretty anaemic, light malts, cereals. Taste comprises a hint of toffee, grassy, light cereals. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, touch of bitterness at the closure. A dull bland affair.

Keg pint at Altamount Hotel. Pours golden brown with good white head. Low malty aromas. A little bitterness if you look for it. Not exciting, but better than I thought it was going to be!

Keg pour at Jackson's Bar in Glasgow and revisited at The Alton in Kilwinning. Smooth ale with a dark golden glow and a thick creamy head. Has a fair malty-bitterness.

Dark colour with an off white head. Mild malty aroma. Bready and some roasted malt in the flavour. A bit thin texture.
