"The most convivial of ales" as described (and often imbibed) by 'The Bard' himself has become the adopted beer of the bohemian vagabonds of the Scottish arts scene. A pale golden brew, that is cold stored with gooseberries to deliver a sharp refreshing drinking experience.

De tradicion indigena celta, con grosellas silvestres en la receta. Se nota en el aroma claramente frutal. Y sigue en el sabor. Dorada clara con poca espuma, carbonatacion muy correcta cuerpo moderado y final seco.

Smooth, grainy but fresh beginning. In the mainpart there are hints of citrus, if you know it you can taste the gooseberries. Lots of grain, very smooth with a dryer, dustier finish. Not too intense gooseberry-flavour, lots of grain here in the body, but round and smooth.

One of this brewery’s well-known historical beers, in this case to a 16th century recipe of fruit wheat beers, with bogmyrtle and meadowsweet. Typically served in leather cups. Sparkling, golden blonde beer with somewhat weird but not unpleasant, sourish sweet aroma in which gooseberries are clearly discernible, sweet fruits in the mouth, crisp with sourish accent, honeyish with somewhat medicinal presence of the aforementioned wild flowers, very light bitterishness in the finish. Interesting resurrection of an ancient beer type, something I am usually quite enthusiastic about.

Bottle from the LCBO. Very pale hazy yellow with just a thin white film of a head. Nose is floral with some toffee and definite gooseberry. Moderate sweet front with a light bitterness in the middle through the finish. Light mouth with average carbonation. Nice light summer ale.
