Based on the classic Vienna Lager style (though technically an ale), and annoyer of a certain type of beer geek, Vienna Pale is a sweet, malty drinking pint, with plenty of Saaz, Citra and Cascade dry-hopping to keep things interesting.

Bannerman's in Edinburgh is a corner pub south of and below the Royal Mile, however it feels like a cavernous music bar, and it is a music venue - where I found this, their only cask option on. A very mildly hazy golden beer with a pretty good head. Feels stronger than it is, is a tad stewed fruity but still good on this pour

Amber pour with a decent white head. Aromas of lemon, some hay. Flavours of lemon(gras), some malts/grains and hops. Crisp and sessionable, although the flavours could be slightly stronger.

Amber beer with a decent white head. Hoppy, lightly citrusy aroma. Flavour has a bit of tart citrus too, some malt, grassy hop. Crisp and clean taste, not a really strong flavour but perfectly drinkable.
