The taste of grain has always been a vital part of the Scottish brewing tradition. We took the convention one step further, milling fine porridge oats right here in the brewery.

The result is an ale with the flavour of gentle hops, a creamy head and just the right amount of bitterness.

Bottle, Thanks Pivnizub! Heather, oat and honey nose. Amber, off-white foam layer. Fruity and honeyish light cracker malt base, aromatic and minerally/earthy hop notes. Sparkly on the palate, but slightly too light. Iron and strawberries in the aftertaste.

Bottle. Citric hop aroma. Copper colour, small white head. Flavour is smokey and a little yeasty. Aftertaste is not harsh, but a little sour. Too much carbonation, numbs my buds.

Darkish bitter with a hopped cocoa and caramel aroma. The flavour is a nicely dry with hints of caramel. Overall a nice dry caramel bitter.

The aroma is sweet fruity with notes of apricot. The color is orange and it has a fine though collapsing head. The flavor is of malts with notes of fruit; apricot and others. In the end it turns dry and slightly bitter.

Amber ale. Nice hop aroma, lightly sour and fruity, woody. The malt taste is hidden by the strong aromatic hop flavour; the palate confirms the aromatic hop character of this ale.
