The Inaccessible Pinnacle is regarded as being one of the most challenging Munros to climb. This Ale's complexity rivals the ascent of the peak, with it's hoppy aroma achieving a well-balanced malty taste.

Not the most thrilling bitter you'll ever have but a nice maltiness to it and a hit of caramel stop it being totally run of the mill.

Vom Fass im The Old School Restaurant in Dunvegan im 2018-06 getrunken. Auch wenn fast warm serviert wurde kommt so eine feine Karamellnote deutliche hervor. Der Hopfeneinfluß ist recht schwach. Doch dafür hat das Bier leichte fruchtige Pfirsichkernnoten. Leckerer Begleuter zum Essen.

Cask at Seumas Bar, Skye. It pours clear golden with a thick, dense white head. The nose is soft, grainy, doughy, cereal and bread. The taste is smooth, lemony, toast, light bitterness, grain and dough with a dry finish. Medium body and fine carbonation. Smooth, clean and easy-going. I have a had this a few times in the past and this is by far the best it has tasted.

Amber-tan. Sweet, slick and oily, pears in syrup character. A quick-drinking beer that has almost no bitterness but also not much complexity.
