This is a unique beer, brewed specially for the festive season. A classic, rich, tawny, Scottish ale; full-bodied and mellow with a delightful hop character.

Cask @ Henglers Circus. Slightly hazy golden colour, creamy white head. Aroma is fruity, hoppy and citric. Flavour is light malted, fruity and soft hops. Fairly bitter and slightly dry finish. Well drinkable.

Thick creamy offwhite head slowly settles out of a milky carbonated body, leaving a sharp dividing line and under it a clear amber body. Head has very good cling. Milky fruity malty aroma, quite mild, with resiny notes, quite hoppy. Deep fruity resiny malty floral taste. Excellent harmony. Honey notes. Lots and lots of hops. Dry wooden resiny floral aftertaste. An excellent beer. (0.5pt cask at the Old Mitre.)

Cask gravity at Halfway House, Brenchley. Copper colour, disappearing head. Just a bit dull on the aroma. Biscuity malt, some toffee, some sharp hop that is a bit sherberty. Not as intense as I would expect a Harviestoun beer to be. Reasonable fullness in mouth, some nuttiness. Dryish finish.
