330ml bottle; BB Mar 2020. Picked up in Tobermory while on a cruise. Poured into a 2017 CAMRA Scottish Real Ale Festival glass at home on 23rd Sep 2019. Amber body, red hue, wispy off-white head. Malty, but in poor condition, almost 'flat' in fact. Semi-sweet but lacking oomph and depth. So wanted to enjoy this, sadly I didn't. Scored 'kindly'.
