First up, this one is gluten free, so a real treat for any celiacs out there. Amber in colour with a creamy head and a malty tangerine aroma. Strong malt flavours with nicely balanced bitterness, some slight floral and citrusy notes.

Pours hazy gold into a willi. Off-white creamy head with excellent retention does not recede. Tangerine aromas. Crisp with tangerine and melon upfront turning to earthy pith and peel in the dry, medium length finish.

Rocky white head on an extremely pale golden coloured body.
Grapefruit, citrus & pine aroma.
Thin bodied, soft on the tongue & cloying - wishy washy.
Lemon, zesty, grapefruit & cereal tastes.
Lacking in all parts.

On cask at Whitebridge Hotel, Inverness - clear gold body, little white head. Soft fruit character with a little citrus bite. Easy going.

Orange, golden pour with a decent white head. Aromas of citrus (mainly orange), hops, some malt. Tastes more lemon, pine, hops, decent aftertaste (slightly bitter). Nice for the ABV.
