Can for Pursuit of Hoppyness, Glasgow. It pours clear pale straw yellow with a dissipating white head. The aroma is quite savoury, herbal, nutty, tangy, zingy, gooseberry, lemon, grape must, cereal and nougat. The taste is crisp, dry, snappy, muted acidity, lemony, slightly herbal, damp grass, straw, white grape skin, gooseberry, white wine mellow notes of vanilla and nougat and biscotti with a smooth finale. Light body and fine carbonation. Woodruff isa really interesting addition, and I. My opinion, works.

Can from Aldi Aberdeen Westhill. 5 pours hazy golden - blonde with a small white cap. The aroma is soft, sweet, ripe stone fruits, apricot, peach, mango, touch green and floury bread. The taste is initially dry, greenish, weedy, touch of spring onions, apricot, peach, persimmon and orange squash with a drying, weedy finish. Average body and soft carbonation. Tastes impressively fresh. Moreish.

Bottle picked up at the brewery. It pours clear darkest brown, approaching black with a a quickly dissipating tan head. The aroma is bitter - sweet, rich roasted malt, intoxicating, rich chocolate character, chocolate bourbon biscuits, dried fruits, toasted fruit cake, fruity whisky character, quite maritime and savoury through the back end. The taste is initially deceptively smooth, bitter - sweet, dark roasted malt, whisky soaked oak, chewy, toothy, plenty of dried fruits, raisin, sultana, fig, toasted fruit cake, slightly medicinal, warming booze, quite savoury, some umami, liquorice allsorts and toasty spice with a warming, dried fruit finale. Medium+ body and fairly mellow, soft carbonation. Dangerously drinkable. Nice depth of flavour.

Can shared by my bro. It pours hazy orangey - gold with a thick, fluffy white head. The aroma is sweet, juicy, ripe, orange creamsicle, mango, fruit pie, nectarine apricot, touch green, weedy and fruit salad sweets. The taste is smooth, juicy, fairly sweet, touch green, apricot, peach, tangerine, orange creamsicle, fruit salad, orange squash, touch green, weedy and brioche with a smooth finish. Average body and moderate carbonation. Super fruity, but a bit sweet if truth be told. Missing that fyne ales bitterness. Decent nonetheless.
