Cask @ Snow Goose, Inverness 270611 Appereance - Amber brown, hazy, frothy off white head..good lacing. Aroma - fruity malt, bit of apple, slight roast. Taste - fruity red berry malt, hint of apple (less than the aroma), some caramel malt, some roasted malt. Finish of fruity malt with lingering roasted bitterness. Quite good beer, above average, the hint of apple doesn’t spoil the taste.
