Cask at The Globe Aberdeen. It pours clear deep gold - amber with a limited head. The aroma is soft, sappy, oily, sticky, digestive biscuit and earth. The taste is bitter - sweet, quite slick, sappy, resin, leather, caramel, peppery spice and slightly floral with a drying finale. Average body and light carbonation (perhaps could be done with a to touch more). Old school golden bitter vibes. It's decent enough, by better condition would lift it further.

Cask at Archibald Simpsons, Aberdeen. It pours clear golden - blonde with a thick, fluffy white head. The aroma is fresh, fruity, zingy citrus, grapefruit in particular, pomelo, tangerine, lemon, biscuity malt, bread and some pine. The taste is firmly dry, restrained bitterness, biscuity malt base, pithy, zesty, grapefruit, slightly floral, pine needles, wood and a touch of peppery spice. Average body and moderate, fluffy cask carbonation. Rounded and moreish. My favourite edition of this to date, think fierce are improving their cask game day by day.

Medium bodied. Love that this is their medium dry, as it is dryer than most other cideries dry. I like the balance to this..first pour of it for me, so will see what I think after 5 litres.

Average radler body and moderate carbonation. probably eers on being a touch sweet, but this still hit the spot on a hot day.
