Keg at Hanging Bat. Hazy pale golden body with a thin white head. Light carbonation. Great lacing. Aroma of chalk, lemon and yeast. Flavour of lemon, wheat and grapefruit. Medium body with a watery, slightly oily mouthfeel. Lively carbonation. A tasty, refreshing beer. I’m not sure if it’s an IPA but it’s certainly better than their 4.8% ABV Wanderlust Wheat (is this just a stronger version of it?)

Bottle from Tomlinsons, care of Mr Bois. It pours clear pale gold with a small white head. The nose is soft, doughy, candied peel, satsuma and boiled sweets. The taste is dough, toast, spice, lime rind, satsuma, sherbet, light bitterness and straw with a dry finish. Light-medium body and fine, prickly carbonation. Quite a delicate beer. Soft and quaffable.

The taste is roasty, toast, earth, cola, candy, tangy dark fruit, wood, vinous, light spice, liquorice and some alcohol warmth with a dry finish. Medium+ body and moderate carbonation. Good depth of flavour and rather nice Belgian character. Probably Six Degrees North best beer to date.

Bottle from Tomlinson’s, via Colin! It pours hazy pale gold with a medium fluffy white head. The nose is doughy, peppery, hay, spice, banana and sweet citrus. The taste is smooth, doughy, grass, spice, crisp bitterness, light alcohol, pepper and grapefruit rind with a dry, biter finish. Medium body, moderate carbonation and foamy mouth-feel. Nice level of bitterness. A solid Belgian ale. Original rate was 3.4 Update: July 2016. I have had this multiple times on draught now. Seems to improved quite a bit. Fresh, dry and very moreish. Quite De Ranke-esque. 3.7

From the keg menu at Hanging Bat, one-third pint, beer flight choice. Unclear pale golden body. Low, but stable head lacing the upper level of the glass. Sweet spiced fruity nose. Lemony hops to the taste buds alongside notes of wheat and ripe fruits, lightly spiced. Lemony bittersweet tail. Approved (Edinburgh 10.08.2013).
