Skye Brewery’s head brewster has come up with an imaginative blend of Maris Otter and Crystal malts, dark caramalt and torrified wheat, all working in harmony with Sorachi Ace hops, one of the rarest. A clean golden bitter ale with an underlying biscuit flavour and zesty zingy citric aroma and aftertaste.
Hops: Sorachi Ace

Bottle from The Misty Bottle, Skye. It pours clear deep copper with a small dissipating white cap. The aroma is earthy, woody, sappy, resin, green, grassy, herbal, nutty, praline and brown bread. The taste is firmly dry, bitter, green, herbal, varnished wood, pithy, zesty, bitter citrus peel, grapefruit, brown bread and biscuit with spicy, herbal finale. Medium body and average carbonation. A bit toothy and spicy. More of a strong bitter than what you would call an IPA today. Not bad.

On keg at Isles Inn, Portree - deep old gold body with a short white head. Fresh grapefruit bite, some piney bitterness at the end. Good clean pint.

Hops, grass, and malt aroma. Caramelised malt taste, bitterness, and hops. Kind of an intermediate between a bitter and an IPA.
