Brown beer, went a bit flat on top. Smoky smell, and it's there in the taste too with a touch of fruit. I'm not huge on smoky beers but this is quite light. Not bad.

Bottle from a Morrisons in Glasgow. Amber in colour, with a decent, white, head. Pleasant pale ale, with some tropical fruit and citrus hops, a solid malt base and dryish, finish. Good.

Cask at Cloisters. Clear golden body with a thin off-white head. Very faint lacing. Aroma of honey, orange and apricot. Flavour of tinned orange and a sour, tangy finish. Thin body with an oily texture. Just ok. I’ve tried much more punchy, easy drinking IPAs.
