Associated Venue: Cromarty Brewing Co
Established in 2011
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.

Can from Caledonian Craft Beer Merchant. Clear deep golden body with a thin off-white head. No visible carbonation. Patchy lacing. Aroma of banana, straw and white pepper. Flavour of banana bread and brown sugar. Medium body with a slick texture. Soft fizz. It’s a touch too sweet for me, but I do love Cromarty’s beers (another of their wheat based ones - Jungle Hijinx - is world class). More Weizenbocks please!

Cask at the Guildford Arms. £6.10 a pint mind you! Pours clear mahogany with a thin beige head. Aromas of brown bread and caramel. Taste is more of the same. Clean finish. Nice example of the style.

Keg at Casc, Aberdeen. It pours clear blonde with a sturdy, fluffy white head. The aroma is sweet, soft, sweet banana, foamy banana candy, flumps, warming spice, clove rock, toasty grain and nougat. The taste is initially a touch dry and some a sharp citrus zing, powdered sugar, candy, clove rock, pineapple chunks, plenty of sweet banana, banana split with squirty cream, a touch of green veg/celery and warming booze with a drying finale. Medium body and moderate, fluffy carbonation. A bit lighter and more chuggable than expected. Errs on being a bit sweet though.

Can. Hazy orange beer, small pale cream colour head. Light palate, smooth, mildly dry, decent fine carbonation. Smooth malts, a light creamy sweetness, touch of caramel. Ahtanum presenting here as skunky with pretty ripe tangerine and mandarin. Mild peel bitterness into a cooling pine. Light finish leaves a mild peel bitter linger. Yeah, not a bad single hop showcase but this hop can be brighter and this beer could be a tad cleaner.

Can from Appellation Wines. Appearance - murky orange with a foamy yellow-white head. Nose - passionfruit and then orange zest and tangy sour mango. Taste - sour mango and orange, not much on the passionfruit side. Palate - medium bodied, tart middle and finish. Overall - quite good.
