500ml bottle from Peckhams, Glasgow. Gold/copper, thin beige, slightly fruity peachy aroma, some niceish hop. This fruity hop thing is pretty good. Bit of empty candy sugar, but otherwise tasty.

500 ml bottle, bought at Peckham’s, Glasgow. ABV is 4.3%. Copper coloured beer, moderate off-white head. Nice aroma: nutty, fruity, moderately roasted malts. The flavour is moderately malty and fruity, notes of moderately roasted malts and toffee. Moderate hops. The weird finish is both sourish, soapy and "dusty" at the same time.

Bottle from Peckhams, Glasgow. Russet with thin beige head. Light coffee, milk choc malts on aroma. Bit of odd sourness on aroma and in mouth. Not terribly good to be honest. Decent malts, odd sourness.

Bottle: Slightly hazy, golden coloured, mid-sized fluffy off-white head, a moderate fruity maltiness mixed with distinctive citrousy hops in the nose; moderate sweet-bitter flavour, light to medium bodied; short sweet-fruity-bitter-herbal finish. Very decent beer, a bit weak in the finish...........

Moderately more hoppy than the blonde. Amber, refreshing, but again, not remarkable.

Cask@MarketPorter. Deep golden colour, not much head. Aroma is some bittery fruityness along with grassy hints. Flavour is malts and hops in a not too exciting way. Still refreshing.

500ml bottle from Threshers. Gold with a thin white head; rich citrus and honey aromas; clean and smooth, managing to balance a honeyed sweetness and a grapefruit tartness at the same time; a warming finish. A marvellous beer.

(bottle) Clear, deep golden colour with a dense, medium-sized foamy white head. Light-sweet, fruity (citrus, lime) nose with flowery, light-resiny hoppy notes. Light-bitter flavour, light bodied with a soft carbonation. Fruity and malty taste with a lighter hoppy touch compared to the other Arran brews I have sampled; dry and a bit slim, fruity and slightly flowery, slightly resiny hoppy finish.
