In the spring of 2011 construction of the brewery started on the shed works and some awesome stainless steel was ordered from Bavarian Brewery Technologies. Hectic times and long hours later led to the first of the casks rolling out on the 19th December 2011.

Bottle from Westhill Service Station. It pours clear dark reddish - brown with a small khaki head. The aroma is rich and malty, toasted brown bread, malt loaf, molasses, dull vanilla fudge, toffee, bourbon soaked oak, raisin, sultana, fug jam, plum compote, port wine and toasty brown sugars. The taste is firmly dry upfront, sappy, warming booze, resinous, bitter - sweet, sticky green pine, resin, oily orange, raisin, sultana, red grape, some spice, earthy, toothy, chewy, bourbon soaked oak, tannin, red wine, damp herbal accents and wood with a drying finale. Medium body and moderate, fluffy carbonation. Big and toothy. Maybe a touch drying, but enjoyable.

Clear, dark amber with a solid head. Malty aroma. Flavour is malty first, with some toffee and a bit of biscuit, but it's the malt which leads the show and lingers. Very sessionable.
