A sweet malty beer with lots of toffee & caramel notes from the pale and crystal malts. Fresh dry hop taste comes from the challenger and goldings which also give a satisfying easy drinking bitter finish.

Keg at the Steamboat Inn, Carsethorn, near Dumfries. Dull amber with a thick off-white head and a light fizz. Thin body. Mild flavour, with dusty cardboard, A touch of caramel and wood. It's far from being the worst keg bitter that I've tried, but it's pretty poor.

Keg. Just a slight hoparoma. Malty flavor, light to medium bodied. Just a hint of hopbitterness, especially in the aftertaste. Slightly metallic and salty. Rather bland.

Keg at Meadow House, Berwick. Amber colour, creamy white head and malty aroma. Taste is sweet, malt, toffee, caramel, brown sugar, cardboard and some metallic bitterness. Medium bodied, soft to medium carbonation, semi-dry metallic finish. OK.
