Bottled (from Ales By Mail). My comment when opening the bottle (in the General direction of the brewery) was: you cunt pieces of soggy wank biscuits and twat bastards, as I realized this bottle was one of the big gushers of 2012. Except for my face, it came more or less over all the place and wouldn’t settle down. Hazy orange colour, huge thin fluffy slightly off very lively head. Aroma is fruity, mildly spices with some honey as well. Flavour is spices, some sweet malts, mild honey and some slight bitterness as well. Quite thin consistence.

Bottle from Utobeer. It pours straw yellow, with a foamy white head. The nose is honey, floral and some orange. The taste is floral, honey, hay, grass, icing sugar, lemon soap and sweet orange, with a dry finish. Light to medium body, moderate carbonation, with a foamy mouth-feel. Decent balance. Not bad at all.

Cask handpull at Tap East. Clear pale gold thick white head. Diacetyl aroma. More or less undrinkable for me. Makes me gag. Condition is fine. Flavour has a touch of heather on finish and some sweet honey in the middle. But I cant stand diacetyl. Rest of beer is fine. Maybe the diacetyl burns off. I just dont like this beer.

Cask @ Bon Accord. Clear golden colour, white head. Nose is vegetables, citric, light malted. Flavour is citric, little malts and some particular taste of how gasoline or even tar smells. Quite strange, but not bad. Spicy. Slightly bitter and slightly sweet finish.

Golden and highly carbonated with a nice lacy head. The nose has citrus and honey. The taste has more honey but with a refreshing lemon grass on the end. The palate has a medium structure, a fairly creamy texture and a clean finish. Good beer.

@ Dagda Bar, Edinburgh. Bright dull gold. Vague honeyish, herbal aroma. Toasty character with a vague herbal accent. Not much of either signature ingredient to be found.
