Cask at The Scotia, close to the river in Glasgow. Dark clear amber with a small creamy head. Good caramels provide a pleasant richness to its malts, hiding its strength well.

Cask at Tam O Shanter. It pours clear rich brown with a medium off-white head. The aroma is soft, sweet, brown bread, malt loaf, dried fruits and toffee. The taste is smooth, bitter - sweet, toffee, biscuit, alcohol, toasted nuts, fruit cake, malt, leather and earth with a dry finish. Medium + body, fine carbonation and oily mouth - feel. Rich and moreish. Nice one.

Very smooth and intense. Slightly sourish, easy to drink and slightly sweetish. Fresh, very fruity (plums, cherries), malty. Great. The aftertaste is smooth, intense fruity, slightly bitter. Great!

On cask at Alexander Graham Bell. Appearance - dark honey heading into red. Nice head. Nose - not a lot. Some gentle malt. Then toffee finally breaks through. Taste - quite luscious toffee. Then slight malt astringency. Palate - medium bodied with a creamy texture and a fairly fresh finish considering the style. Overall - good but not as good as expected.
