Can from House Of Trembling Madness. Dark brown body with a creamy beige head. Faint lacing. Aroma of wood, biscuit and copper. Flavour of lightly roasted malt and caramel. Thin to medium body with a slick mouthfeel. Soft fizz. A sweet, beery beer. It’s a bit thin but there’s a nice flavour.

Went into the Innis & Gunn in Edinburgh fully expecting to order an I&G but found them all to be regulars. Came out with this hoppy-fruity session. Not a bad end to proceedings.

First live music encounter in Edinburgh during this drink, a cover of KC And The Sunshine Band with guitars only. Not bad. Same for the beer, although a lager so hard to be outstanding. Clean, crisp and a bit hoppy. After this "You were working as a waitress in a cocktail bar..."

First third measure available to be ordered after visiting 20+ venues in the Edinburgh area. Citrus with a gentle sourness, certainly appealing in this respect

Visited the Royal Botanic Gardens of Edinburgh earlier and saw some rare species. Scottish style ales are quite rare in England too where I live, so really enjoyed this soft dark traditional brew - or as traditional as it gets from keg!
