Fra fat på Sheffield Tap 15 Feb 16. Delt med Rune. Gyldenbrun. Nesten ikke skum. Heftig baconaroma. Smaken torv. Gjennomført. Uvariert.

Cask ale, half-pint, shared with Finn while waiting for a train at Sheffield Tap. Creamy white head to a hazy amber coloured body. Spotty lacing. Smoked smell with a touch of meat. Meat smoked taste offset by dark fruits. Malt-fruity endnotes, mid-sweet. Medium bodied. Pleasing to a certain extent (Sheffield 15.02.2016).

Cask at the Holyrood 9a. Pours copper, tastes a lot like sweet smoked sausage.

On keg at Holyrood 9A. Appearance - a lovely amber to red. A decent thin lacy head. Nose - distinct but restrained Islay whisky note. Biscuits and toffee in the background. Taste - slightly overpowering smoking peat. Still toffee and sone sweetness in the background. Palate - medium bodied with a tangy texture and a finish that is interesting but that doesn’t completely refresh. Overall - needs more malt structure to take on the smoke.
