cask at No. 2 Baker’s Street in Stirling - Pours amber and has a light aroma of caramel malt. The flavor is caramel malt sweetness with light bitterness. It’s smooth and overall a decent quaff.

Cask. Poured amber with a bit of an orange hue and a ivory head. Aroma had grain from the malts and floral notes from the hops. Flavor was a bit more malt based with both caramel and sweet grains coming through with an undertone of the floral hops.

Half pint, fresh and kicking cask, hand pulled at Aikman’s Cellar Bar in St Andrews. Deep, dark amber body under a small skinny strip of foam. Malt-fruity smell. Hints of caramel malts that works pretty well together with an underlying throughout going bitterness. Dry and easy to drink [04.11.2008].
