Can from Against The Grain. Clear ruby/amber body with a beige head. Fine carbonation. Faint lacing. Aroma of caramel, bread and biscuit. Flavour of tea and toffee. Thin to medium body with a slick texture. Soft fizz. A nice, rich beer that belies the low ABV.

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. Itβs a touch too sweet for me, but I do love Cromartyβs beers (another of their wheat based ones - Jungle Hijinx - is world class). More Weizenbocks please!

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.
