Golden, slightly hazy, with a medium white head. Sweet aromas of mango and passion fruit, with a blend of exotic fruits in the background. Light to medium body, low carbonation, and dry. The taste contrasts with the aroma. The fruity notes lack sweetness and juiciness, dominated by an albino bitterness with chemical undertones. Drinkable, but not for me.

Cask at Archie's, Aberdeen. It pours clear rich copper wig a frothy off -white head. The aroma is earthy, woody, sappy, resin, pine, toffee, toasty grains and earth. The taste is firmly dry, bitter, toothy, some bitterness, leather, sappy, resin, fragrant, floral, pine, tannin and some herbal vibes with a drying, toothy finish. Average body and carbonation. A bit chewy perhaps, but not bad.
