Cask @ The Anderson, Fortrose 280112
Straw...hazy...no head
Aroma - very light aroma....hint of citrus hop....slight herbal note (?)...hint of sulphur
Taste - light citrus hops...slight grapey malts....hint of orange....unusual
Finish - very light citrus fruit. Biscuity in the tail
Overall - Wasn’t getting much from this one - a bit below average to be honest - needs a re-rate in the future

Cask @ Blackfriars, Inverness 271211
Dark chestnut brown, slight off white thin head.
Aroma - Dark caramel malts, molasses, some chocolate and toffee.
Taste - Dark caramel malt, fudge, toffee, hint of coffee, Mars bar, some burnt sugar. It’s all there but the overall flavour is rather weak.
Palate - Soft carb, bit too thin though - needs more body. Finish of a bit of creamy toffee, but a tad watery and finish is rapid.
Overall - Good aroma, then the taste is there but too diluted. Finish is dull and watery. Would be good if had more body and flavour.
