Taste: very malty, grains, hay, oxidized, metallic, sweet, unpleasant. Aftertaste: malty, grains, hay, a bit metallic, slightly bitter, meh. Very very mediocre.

Keg at The White Cockade, Torry. It pours clear deepish brown with a. Medium fluffy white head. The aroma is toasty, grainy, brown bread, earthy, woody and nuttiness. The taste is dry, touch of bitterness, earthy, grain, cardboard, brown water, rivita, brown bread, brown sugar, caramel, twiggy and wateryness with a dry, grainy cardboard finish. Light -medium body and moderate, velvety carbonation. Nice mouth feel, but no real taste. Nothing good anyhow. Basic.
