An amber colored ale, Black Isle Red Kite is brewed using only the highest quality Maris Otter pale and crystal malts for flavor and body. Challenger hops for bittering with the late addition of Styrian Goldings creates a balance of quenching citrus and malt, and a classic aromatic finish to this refreshing ale. This beer is bright amber with a toasted nut flavor and powerful orange fruit aroma.

bottle from the Morag hostel bar in St. Augustus - Pours ruby red with a medium sized head. It smells of slightly toasty, rich caramel malt. The flavor is sweet and a little toasty with lots of caramel malt. Overall itβs a decent beer, not great, but a bit better than the IPA.

Bottle 50 cl. Courtesy of fonefan. Pours amber with a slight haze and a lively and frothy off-white head. Fresh citrusy hops in the nose. Light body, a little caramel and nuts with dry and fresh citrusy accents. Dry finish. Lovely - almost an APA! 090410

Live Rating. 22nd November 2009. Enjoying this beer now in a bottle at home. Pours slightly hazy amber with a thick pale brown head. A touch of nuttiness with toasted malt aromas in the beginning; citric hop ahd some dry bitterness late with quite a dry, bitter finish on a slightly textured and refreshing mouthfeel. A very good bottle.
