Draft @ Moxy SEC, Glasgow. Clear gold with a small white head due to being served the British way. Aroma of vanilla and grains. Taste of grains, straw and hints of lemons. Low bitterness. Medium carbonation. Dull. I had higher expectations when the barkeeper advertised it as a German-style beer made by locals from around the corner.

330ml can, as WEST 4% Session Lager, part of a boxed four pack: BB 17th May 2021. Drank at home on 12th Dec 2020. Bright golden body, clear and clean, smooth white head on top. Mild hop nose, soft malty taste. It's fine but not going to test your senses too greatly, refreshing enough and easy to drink.

Keg at the Merchant Bar Portree, as West 4, stable long lasting creamy head, clear quite deep gold color, vanila and light bread aroma, grassy lemony flavor with some bread and light honey and a light but noticable bitterness, touch of sweetness. Nice and clean.
