Cask at The Redgarth. It pours clear golden with a medium bubbly white head. The aroma is quite fresh, floral, daisies, freshly laundered clothes, straw, touch of doughy white bread a d toasty grain. The taste is quite clean, light, dry, bitter, rather, floral, daisies, straw, grass, lemon peel, touch of liquorice root and some toasty grain. Light body and soft / light carbonation. Great condition as usual from the Redgarth. Quite a light floral ale, which perhaps lacks wow but sure drinks easy.

13th Aug 2015: cask pint in The Wellington, Ayr, Scotland. Poured a light golden yellow with a white head. Floral notes with a cut grass aroma, the taste sweeter than the nose hinted at, yet with a mild citrus flavour cutting into the floral traces from the aroma. Slight bitterness towards the finish. Decent but no strong flavours to get into really.

Cask at the New Bazaar, Dumfries. Mid gold, served on this occasion with a large Northern head. Lemon-lime Pixy Stix aroma. Taste is a standard bitterness with a tinge of citrussy sweetness. I lose the sweetness at the finish, where only bitterness - with a touch of sulphur - seem to remain. I want to like this and I feel as though I should. Full marks for trying but I feel the balance isn’t right at all.

Cask from The Malt Shovel. Clear golden body with a thick white cap. Great lacing. Soft, subtle aroma aroma of straw, grass and lemon. Flavour of pale malt, earthy hops and a faint citrus note. Medium body with an oily mouthfeel. Light carbonation tickle. Simple and very drinkable.
