A dark and powerful brew named after the Wolf of Badennoch, infamous for burning down Elgin cathedral in 1390. Enjoy by a roaring fire!

Cask at the Peterborough beer Festival 2018. A clear reddy copper coloured pour with a a lasting dirty tan head. Aroma is plum pudding, woody, raisin, cakey. Palate is semi sweet, thick, sticky, cakey malts. Flavour is composed of semi sweet woody, flabby malts, dried fruit, raisin loaf. Salty sweet. Palate is sticky flabby oily. Ok.

Bottle from Tomlinson's Beer Shop, Inverness. Backlog rating from bottle collection and historic scoring. No tasting notes kept, just rating. Decent Old Ale though.

Cask half pint at The Grill, Aberdeen. 6.0% ABV. Dark mahogany colour, large beige head. Malty aroma, notes of caramel. Sweet and malty flavour, caramel and molasses, a hint of herbal hop. A tad too sweet for me.
