Cask at GBBF'16, day two, 10/08/16. Genuine Scottish Beer ... I can tell by the name ... probably brewed on the banks of the Clyde by brewmaster Nessie then flown in fresh to the States! Mahogany brown with a decent beige cap. Nose is tangy fruit rinds, biscuit, brown bread. Taste comprises biscuit malt, toffee, dried fruits, light spice, dates, fruit slice. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, drying close. Fine for style.

Cask gravity GBBF 2017. Dark clear brown colour lasting beige head. not much condition. Syrupy but pepper hop finish . Balanced syrupy American strong malty thing going on. Yes. I mean a bomber of this would get you drunk. Likeable though .

Cask at GBBF. It pours hazy reddish brown with a small white head. The aroma is sweet, toasty grain, caramel, toffee, cereal, dried fruits, perfumed and toasted brown sugar. The taste is bitter, woody, resin, leather, black tea, tannin, caramel, toffee and burnt fruit cake with a drying and woody finish. Medium body and soft carbonation. Not bad.
