Cask at Cloisters. It pours clear amber with a decent fluffy white head. The aroma is soft, fruity hedgerow berry, touch green, floral, Ingy citrus, toasty grains, bread and biscuit. The taste is firmly dry, bitter, biscuit, grassy, toasty grains, woody, peppery spice, hedgerow fruit and berry with a lingering bitter finish. Average body and moderate cask carbonation. Really like the bitterness and hop character.

Can from Aldi Inverurie. It pours clear pale yellow with a thick, fluffy white head. The aroma is fresh, fragrant, zingy, tangy lemon - lime, sherbet and some white bread. The taste is crisp, dry, snappy, quite light, toasty grains, pithy, zesty, lime peel, waxy peel, grass abs some peppery spice. Finish is zesty. Light body and average carbonation. Nice idea, but feels a bit thin and perhaps weak.
