A light coloured, refreshing ale from the land of the Border Reivers.
A session ale full of character, brewed with a subtle use of Crystal Malt and generous use of the aroma hop, 1st Gold.

Cask at Halfway House, Edinburgh. Deep golden. Sweet and fruity. Lightly buttery with medium body and rounded malt. Salty finish. A well made, lager-like ale, but not all that interesting.

Cask at Merton Summer Beer Festival 06-07-07. Poured amber in colour with white head. Not as hoppy as I hoped, some caramel some hops with nice maltiness, this was a nice beer but lacking in authority a little.
