Keg at Craftsman Aberdeen. It pours golden with a medium white head. The aroma is big floral vibes, pot pourri, fragrant, citrus peel, nectarine and peach cordial. The taste is dry, bitter, big floral character which dominates, slightly soapy, some citrus peel, spice, lemongrass and some tannin with a drying floral finish. Lighter end of medium body and moderate, prickly carbonation. Perhaps a bit too much floral character which clashes a bit with the citrus. Finish is dry and soapy. Ok.
