Keg at Brewdog Lothian Road. Pours clear golden amber with a thin white head. Aromas of marmalade and malt. Light spice. Taste is more of the same. Chewy sweet finish.

Can direct from Brewdoge. It pours clear and a lot packed than expected, rich golden. - blonde with a decent white head. The aroma is sweet, juicy, tropical vibes, vibrant passion fruit, mango, peach, persimmon, sappy, resin and apricot wine. The taste is disturbingly smooth, slick, mellow, tropical stones fruits, peach, dried mango, nectarine, passion fruit, splash of lilt, gummy candy, heady booze, toasty grains, crunchy, white bread apricot jam sandwiches, oily, slick and some nutty cereal. Finish is dryer with a boozey bite. Fulsome body (but not heavy), fine prickly carbonation and oily mouth feel. The description makes I sound like a TIPA, but this is strong tropical golden ale. Creeps up on ya.
