Bottle from Lidl Supermarket, Sowerby Bridge. Deeper golden with a next to no head. Nicely palatable scotch ale with a light sweetness from the 'whisky' influence, which is probably best in its nose, but there's nothing actually stated in terms of actual 'whisky'. There's a few malts evident too.

Sampled from a can this beer poured a bright golden color with a huge soapy white head. The aroma was phenolic and sweet. The flavor was grainy, phenolic and sweet. Medium length finish. Medium bodied and smooth.

0,33 bottle.I was curious after what I had so far. Let's see: Transparent old gold color, loose off-white, medium-lasting foam. Sour lager-like, mostly hoppy aroma, faint alcohol, and a little caramel. Medium-bodied sip, sweet, alcoholic impression. You can feel that it's a punchy stuff. A bit syrupy feeling, but a bitter taste also comes in the finish. Not bad. To me, it looks more like a Belgian ale than an imp. pilsner.

Kíváncsian vártam az eddigiek után. Lássuk: Áttetsző óarany szín, laza piszkosfehér, közepesen tartós hab. Savanykás lageres, többnyire komlós illat, gyengén az alkoholt is érezni, és egy kis karamelles beütése is van. Közepesen testes korty, édeskés, alkoholos benyomás. Érződik, hogy ütős cucc. Kicsit szirupos érzet, de lecsengésben keserű íz is jön. Nem rossz. Nekem inkább belga ale-re hasonlít, mintsem imp. pilsenire.

500ml can. Pours a crystal clear gold-yellow with a medium, foamy, long lasting, off-white head that laces. Mild, semi-sweet aroma of grainy malt, bread and grass. Sweet flavour of toasted bready malt, corn, lemon and yeast with a dry, mild, bitter grass finish. Light body with a thin, watery texture and soft carbonation.
