Cranachan is a traditional Scottish dessert made from raspberries, honey, toasted oats and cream. We love it. So we made an oatmeal pale ale and smashed it with
enough local berries to feed a clan of hungry Highlanders.

Bottle from Speciaalbierpakket. Aroma is sweet berries and raspberry syrup. Sweet honey flavour with a hint of tartness. Medium bodied. An okay raspberry beer, though it's a bit too sweet for my taste.

440ml can as part of a delivery from the brewery, shared at home. Purplish pink and clear with a pinkish white head. The aroma is delicious but it's hard to get anything past the raspberry.Taste isn't overly sweet, there's a nice tart edge to it with a hint of honey in the finish. Body is quite light, with medium to heavy carbonation. I've wanted to try this beer for a while, and I'm not disappointed.

Vom Fass im BrewDog/DogTap Berlin 2019-10 getrunken. In dieser trüben, hellroten Weiße findet statt eine Säure fast eine Süße. Das Himbeeraroma wirkt irgendwie künstlich und erinnert stark an Bonbons und nicht nach Früchte. Zu einen Cranachan Dessert gibt es gar keine Gemeinsamkeiten. An Hand diesen Fakten erinnert das Bier hier irgendwie an das BrewDog - B-side Raspberry Berliner. Ich hoffe wirklich das mir nicht schon wieder das falsche Bier im DogTap Berlin serviert wurde.

Draft. An unclear amber beer with a lazing tan head. The aroma has notes of raspberries, roasted malt, and oats. The flavor is sweet with notes of raspberries, barley, oats, and lemons, leading to a tart finish.
