500ml bottle from Braemar Brewery shop in Braemar - Slightly foggy amber body, thin lasting white head. Biscuity malts to kick off, bit of sharpness from the hops, a bit of zesty orange marmalade at the finish.

Bottle from the Brewery stall at Barra Christmas Fair. It pours deep golden - amber with a lasting fluffy white head. The aroma is bitter - sweet, fragrant, floral, nutty, biscuity malt, cereal, leafy vibes and damp wood. The taste is dry, bitter, snappy, grassy, leafy, floral, peppery spicy, nutty, woody, biscuit, cereal and some underlying caramel -like sweetness. Finish is bitter - sweet and drying. Average body and moderate carbonation. Old school in character, but not without its charms. It feels fresh and I like the bitterness. Not bad.
