Keg at West. It pours clear pale gold with a small white head. The nose is fresh, doughy, white bread, grass and cream. The taste is crisp, creamy, white bread, grass, toasty grain and straw with a dry finish. Medium body and moderate, foamy carbonation. Decent lager. Clean and readily consumable.

Its a really basic lager and, to be honest well below West’s usual standard. It’s fairly tasty, hoppy and crisp in the mouth but ends up a bit sickly after a few. Nice enough but unremarkable.

Keg at Topolabamba. Possibly an alias for WEST 4? Straw coloured with a frothy white head. Slightly citrusy lager that was a very good match for the Mexican food it was drunk alongside

Keg at West Brewery. Clear golden body with no head, carbonation or lacing. Light fruity aroma with a faint yeasty note. Subtle grapefruit flavour - nicer than St Mungo (the filtered version of this). Thin body with an oily texture. Nice fizz. Decent, but I remember it being more cloudy/unfiltered/tasty last time I tried it.

On tap @ Teuchters, Edinburgh. Pours golden with steady carbonation and some head, some of which hangs around. The nose is distinctly citrus against a gentle pale malt background. The citrus is confirmed on the taste and in fact, we’re talking sweet citrus, almost lemonade. Again there is a gently malt profile. The palate is light to medium in body with a long tangy middle and finish. Overall, a very good effort.
