Grainy mild, malty. Fruity with a nice mild fruity grainy finish. Nice.

[Cask at the Crown Hotel, Portpatrick.] Rather a long way from the brewery, but in decent enough condition. an amber pour with a thick cream coloured head; orangey citrus aroma; biscuity malt body with a rather thin citrus taste; and a pleasant, light citrusy bitterness to finish.

[On tap at the Mount Stewart Hotel, Port Patrick.] A hazy amber pour with a lasting white head; citrusy aroma; sharpish citrus taste, but rather thin and watery; then some orange peel to finish. Crisp and refreshing, but a rather basic craft-style beer.

Cask at the Alexander Graham Bell. Pours clear dark brown with a thin beige head. Aromas of light blackcurrant and toffee. Taste adds some roast. Decent and drinkable.
