Cask at GBBF 2019. Another from MJ's 500. Deep brown-orange, clear, with lace. Much darker than expected. Nose is burnt caramel / treacle, light smoke, bread, spicy as well, like rye, herbal, peppery hops. Rich malt flavor, a bit pasty, caramel, bready, chocolate, some orange and lemon. Approaching brown ale territory, but with good hopping. How does this stand as a traditional Scottish Bitter? PRetty good, I guess. Certainly doesn't surprise or amaze, but this is still a solid dark bitter.

Cask pint in the Cafe Royal, Edinburgh on 25th Oct 2014. Golden clear body with a lasting beige/creamy head. Citrus and bitter lead in both the nose and taste with the malts giving an underlying mini-sweetness until the aftertaste, where the hops reassert themselves to give a lasting dry and bitter finish.
