Lovely fruity raisins in the taste and nose this time. Previous rating 25/03/11. 6/3/7/4/14 = 3.4 Golden amber with a little head. The nose has raisins and caramel-malt. The taste is more caramel and malt. Palate is great, rich texture but refreshing. A delicious, really balanced beer.

330ml bottle bought at Vino Wines Grange Loan in Edinburgh. Amber body with just a few patches on the surface. Smell of dried fruits. Sappy and dried citric fruits in flavour. Bitter dried fruity ending. Drinkable in spite of being rather unvaried (hotel room, 02.12.2010).

330ml bottle, trade with Craig, thanks. Noisy pour creating a quickly diminishing, beige hue and a clear, dark brown body. Aroma dispenses roasted malts with a herbal touch. Dark caramel malts in flavour with peaty hints to it. Bittering malts to the ending. Foamy on the swallow. In the direction of a brown ale. Alright (hotel room, Edinburgh 01.12.2010).
