Cask @ Moulin Inn [280213]
Dark amber, clear, thin white head
Aroma - little on the nose
Taste - soft light fruity malts, very soft caramel, touch of berry fruits, bit earthy, slightly odd flavour in there, passable
Palate - Light to medium body, smooth texture. Finish as main flavour, there’s that bitter bit astringent finish again (more so than the Light Ale)
Overall - I could drink it but it comes across as rather flawed

Cask @ Moulin Inn, Pitlochry [280213]
Golden amber, clear, thin white head, good lacing
Aroma of light fruits, light pale malt
Taste of light pale malts, dab of wet hay, soft bitter citrus hop, light soft fruits, light flavour
Palate - light body, bit oily texture. Finish a bit dry, slight zesty but a tad of an astringent linger
Overall - Fairly ordinary, quite watery, it’s drinkable but spoiled by the finish

Bottle at the ChrisO Holiday Tasting, London - thanks to...I almost have to assume this is something Chris sourced? Pours clearish, red-brown with a faint, off-white foam head. Crisp brown bread nose. Lightly tangy semi-dark malt flavor, some leaves, brown bread. Light to medium bodied with fine carbonation. Tangy brown bread finish, some toast, leaves and dirt. Not great, if I’m honest.

Bottle at ChrisO tasting, 30/12/12. Hazed dark amber/light brown with a thin tan head that clears to the edge. Nose carries vegetal tones, peas, malt. Taste follows, light fruits, malt, veg. Thinnish body, watery, some bitterness in the finish. Twiggy brown nonsense - meh !
