On tap @ Bert’s Bar. Pours dark amber with a decent head. The nose has toffee, some spice and sweet malt. The taste has more of the sweet malt and toffee with a slight astringency towards the end. The palate is medium in body, creamy in texture and as mentioned already, a slight malt bitterness rather than any hop freshness at the end. Overall, it’s another mediocre offering from the makers of Tennents.

Keg @ Bridge Inn, Peebles 230512
Brown honey colour, clear, thick white head
Aroma - light cereal malts, light hops, slighty metallic
Taste - light cereal malts, light caramel malts, slight hint of bitter hops, hint of honey, touch of popcorn, light biscuit, bit of metal
Palate - medium carb, bit fizzy, thin body, watery. Finish as main flavour, rapid, boring.
Overall - It’s the competition for Belhaven Best - is it better....er no....it’s just as dull and mediocre
