Bottle at Dobbies Garden World Aberdeen. It pours deep mahogany brown, with a thin, light tan head. The nose is chocolate, currant, smoke and caramel. The taste is wood, earth, chocolate, caramel, blackberry, ripe blueberry and light roasted malt, with a dry-roasted finish. Moderate body and average carbonation. Ok.

500ml bottle from Dobbies garden centre, Ashford. Deep clear chestnut colour with lasting beige head. Some toasty malts, some choc on aroma. Even a touch of hops on the aroma. Earthy malts in the mouth. Some sweet dark toffee on the finish. A little roastiness on the nose. Some cardboard staleness on the swallow although the best before is Apr 2012 so a year on drinking it now. It’s ok for the aroma and the toffee, but the rest isn’t great. Filtered and pasteurised.
