March 2010: Nice touch: Where I’d expect to see the best before date (on the top of the cap), are the words, ’WALK THE DOG’. The brown 500ml bottle conditioned beer was poured slowly into a UK pint sleeve glass. A terracotta orange body with a white foaming head stared back at me after the pouring. The body almost clear, just the hint of a semi-haze, that is because I poured the sediment in too. Hops and malts hit the nose, more hops than malts. The hops win in the taste stakes too, the beer is dry and bitter because of the hop content with all the other ingrediants being pushed into the background. A good, well made beer, a little too hoppy for my own tastes, but not enough for a ’hophead’ type I should imagine.

Bottle from colleagues. Clear light brown gold colour thick lasting beige head. Pasteurised toffee aroma. Some tea like hops some toffee malt but the pasteurisation kills this beer. Yep odd mix of malt and hop too. Nit unpleasant but the boiled sweet emptiness at the heart of a pasteurised beer is there.

Cask @ Bon Accord. Slightly hazy dark golden colour, off-white head. Nose is light malted. Flavour is soft malty, bit of citrus upfront, later slightly dry biscuit. Slightly bitter and dry finish. Easy drinkable, but not much going on here.
