A naturally brilliant blend of malt and hop characters. Solid gold colour, remarkably aromatic. smooth body with hints of fresh citrus. Dry delicate hop flower finish. A drink that is both distinctive and long on refreshment.

Thick creamy off-white head; light amber body; slight flavor of hops; weak finish. Not bad but did not enjoy it much after Kelburn Dark Moor.

Draught @ The Windmill (Wetherspoons Stansted airport) Second best of the seven cask ales I had during my visit in England, maybe I would have rated it higher if it was served in a "more genunie" environment...

[on handpump at the Jolly Angler, Reading] Pours a surprisingly pale gold for a bitter with a tiny dissipating white head. Had it directly after a Harvey’s Sussex Best and it suffered badly in comparison - this is a much lighter beer, and tasted relatively weak and watery. Having said that, it’s very smooth and easy to-drink. Flavours are citrus hops with a hint of honey and maybe some melon; it’s quite sweet (as you’d expect in a Scottish beer). All in all a fairly average, pale bitter - there’s nothing bad here, but nothing memorable either, and I can’t quite work out why it’s rated so highly.

From cask at Charlies. Pours clear and golden yellow/orange with a lacing white head. Light fruity hops and butterish aroma. Flavour is mild fruity yet also quite butterscotch flavoured. Ends with a solid bitterness and a mild fruity hops note. Slight thin body.

Cask at The Barony, Edinburgh. A golden beer with a dense lazing white head. The aroma is sweet malty with notes of caramel, and so is the flavor, the body is light.
