Can from House Of Trembling Madness. Dark brown body with a creamy beige head. Faint lacing. Aroma of wood, biscuit and copper. Flavour of lightly roasted malt and caramel. Thin to medium body with a slick mouthfeel. Soft fizz. A sweet, beery beer. It’s a bit thin but there’s a nice flavour.

Visited the Royal Botanic Gardens of Edinburgh earlier and saw some rare species. Scottish style ales are quite rare in England too where I live, so really enjoyed this soft dark traditional brew - or as traditional as it gets from keg!

Taste - more raisins and caramel. Sweet spiced cake.
Palate - medium bodied, creamy middle and sweet then lightly drying finish.
Overall - a great example of a Scottish Ale.
