Bottle picked up at Inverurie Whisky shop. It pours pretty much black with a decent beige head. The aroma is dark chocolate, cacao nibs, toasted coconut, dark choc bounty bar, charred, toast and rich roasted malt. The taste is dry, rich roast. bitter - sweet, dark chocolate, cacao nibs, cakey malts, toasted coconut, bounty, coconut water and a touch of coffee grounds. Medium body and fine, prickly carbonation. Strikes a nice balance for someone like myself without a sweet tooth. Good body.

Bottle picked up at Noble Hops, Aberdeen. It pours slightly hazy deep amber with a foamy white cap. The aroma is perfumed, toasted coconut, not artifical in any way, coconut water, Scottish macaroon, biscuit, slight sweetness and some toasty grain. The taste is drying, toasty grain, coconut water, cereal, bit of tannin, touch of cake, biscuit and spice with a drying finish. Light to average body and fine prickly carbonation. A bit grainy and wishy washy. So - so.

Bottle picked up at Noble Hops, Aberdeen. It pours clear lager gold with a thick, fluffy white head. The aroma is sweet, doughy white bread with butter, bread & butter, biscuit, graininess, farty farmyard and wet hat. The taste is crisp, dry, light, grainy, wet hay, grassy, doughy white bread, farty and a touch of lemon rinse. Dryish finish. Light (but not thin per se) body and moderate, foamy carbonation. I like the idea and with some tweaks this could be a go to low alcohol, but there is a certain farty and almost buttery edge to this that ain't so great.
