Can from Westhill Service Station. It pours a clear chestnut brown with a handsome fluffy off - white head. The aroma is freshly baked brown bread, ryvita, orchard fruits, berry, fig/plum pudding and warming spice. The taste is firmly dry, bitter, snappy, bitter - sweet, toasty brown bread, ryvita, nuttiness, toasted spice, dull coffee grounds, touch of orchard fruits, bit of fruit cake and just a touch of alcohol in the backdrop with a dry, toasty finish. Medium body and moderate, fluffy carbonation. Flavourful, robust and actually rather drinkable. Very tasty stuff.

Can. A light haze on this mandarin colour beer, good pale cream colour head. Palate is airy and semi dry, good fine minerally carbonation. Airy malts, a light sweetness. Bright lemon and lime, floral. Crisp pine. Crisp semi dry finish. Not very lager like but a nice crisp fruity beer. Very drinkable.
