On keg at the Hanging Bat. Appearance - amber to brown and murky. Thin beige head. Nose - brown bread and burnt toffee. A bit tight. Taste - chewy, sweet toffee. Marmalade. Thick shred. Palate - medium bodied, long zesty finish. Overall - it started slow, it grew on me, then it was great.

Can from Fierce, Aberdeen. It pours hazy rich mahogany brown with a yellowy - beige head. The aroma is sweet - sour, caramel, toffee crisp, loads of dried fruits, raisin, sultana, dried cherry, nut, banana bread, fruit loaf, toasty, woody and brown bread. The taste is initially dry, woody, toasty, earthy, sweet - sour, toasted brown bread, light tannin, toothy, leather, sour dried cherry, raisin, sultana, grape skin, prickly spice, sappy, oily, resinous, brown bread, vinous, fortified wine, sherry - like character and boozy warmth with a drying, vinous finish. Fulsome body, fine+ carbonation and lively, massaging carbonation. Almost has a Gales Prize Old Ale about it. Really grew on me.

On tap. Pours a deep mahogany color with light head. Aromas of dry caramel, raisins and toasted malts. Flavors of toasted malts, semi dry raisins with almost a bit of sourness, copper and a bit of oak. Not what I was expecting based on previous review.
