Bottle at Canon Gait. It pours clear rich amber - brown with a decent white head. The aroma is oil citrus action, orangey, wood, leather, light caramel, brown bread and toasted nut. The taste is dry, bitter, toasted nut, toothy, woody, some citrus peel, slightly soapy and leather with a drying finish. Lighter end of medium body and fine carbonation. Not bad for what it is. Would have liked to have tried it on cask though.

Can from Aldi Inverurie. It pours clear golden - amber with a small foamy white head. The aroma sweet, banana foamy candy, citrus peel, orange marmalade and wheat bread. The taste is dry, decent kick of bitterness, some sweet banana, pithy, zesty, tangerine, orange peel, bit of spice, cereal, grass and straw with some orange peel through the finish. Light - medium body and fine, foamy carbonation. Nice citrus hop edge to a wheat base. A pleasant surprise. Decent quenching summer ale.
