Half, cask ale at Pot Still, many thanks to mr_h. White layer on the surface of a dark amber coloured body. Aroma of caramel malts added by the vapour of alcohol. Sweet fruity taste mixed with earthy malts. Ends dry with alcohol on the swallow. Medium bodied. So and so (Glasgow, 12.04.2012).

Cask at Archibald Simpson, Aberdeen. It pours red-amber, with a thick off-white head. The nose is a red fruit, jam, cardboard and even some Dairylea (soft cheese spread). The taste is leather, wood, earth, floral, red fruit, cheddar and some underlying sweetness, with dry finish. Medium body and soft carbonation. A bit odd, but inoffensive.

Medium offwhite head. Paleish amber body with carbonation. Light strawy apple aroma with toffee, earth, and peas notes. Dry-sweetish floral fruity strawy taste with perfumy earthy notes. Mid-bodied. Mild, soft mouthfeel. Dryish mealy earthy peas and flowers aftertaste with perfumy smoky nutty notes. Interesting, drinkable, and quite different. I quite liked it. (0.5l bottle, Centra Colosseum, Oslo.)

Cask, gravity at Merton Winter Beer Festival, 17th & 18th February 2012 Brown in colour with a slim light beige head, touch of haziness. Touch spicy with a distinct Chruistmas spicy feel to it, little powdery in the mouth and with a light bitterness. Bit of a one trick pony but not a bad one. A6 A3 T7 P3 Ov13 3.2

Medium beige head. Clear brown body. Perfumy caramelly earthy aroma with fruity notes. Dry-sweet fruity perfumy taste with caramelly notes. Mid-bodied. Mild, soft mouthfeel. Dryish roasty metallic aftertaste with apple, earth and caramel notes. Vaguely funky, too. It’s quite nice, but not great. (0.5l bottle, Centra Colosseum, Oslo.)
