500ml bottle: BBE Oct 15. Poured into a UK pint sleeve at home on 6th Mar 15, during Scottish tasting session I had with myself. Blonde in name, golden in colour, the head a fast fading white covering. Not much in the nose, some mild maltiness with a whiff of hops below maybe. The taste however was fine, malty lead with a good bitter centre and finish. Toffee notes in the flavour, but not overly sweet. Decent and enjoyable: would be happy to drink this again and again, a good session ale.

Bottle from the Scottish Real Ale shop. Appearance - dark brown to black and opaque. Decent head. Nose - Highland Toffee and hazelnuts. Taste - more of the same. Palate - medium bodied with a creamy texture and a fairly good finish if a bit sweet. But hey that’s the style. Overall - even though the style has been nailed I’d have liked it to be a touch fresher at this abv.
