Keg at Fierce Bar, Abz. It pours clear copper with a thick, fluffy white head. The aroma is fresh, bright, fragrant, piney, floral, perfumed grapefruit, tangerine, tangelo, orange blossom and a touch of apricot. The taste is crispy, dry, snappy, touch of bitterness, fragrant, floral, pine, clean malt base, dull toffee, zingy citrus and a slightly soapy edge with a dry finish. Average body and moderate+ foamy carbonation..very approachable and easy going, without being boating.

Keg at St Machar Bar, Old Aberdeen. It pours cloudy/murky burnt orange with a fluffy white cap. The aroma is a bit sweaty, sweet, creamy, ripe mango, apricot, persimmon, mango milkshake and fruit smoothie. The taste is smooth, creamier & sweeter than expected, milky, less pucker, mango fruit smoothie, peach melba, berocca, splash of white wine and fruit pie. I was expecting a sour and was left with a fruit smoothie. It's ok, but has a very short finish.

Keg at St Machar Bar, Old Aberdeen. It pours hazy deep purple with a small, pinky - white head. The aroma is sweet - sour, juicy, tangy, loads of red berry, strawberry, raspberry pip, blackcurrant, bramble, jammy vibes, light vanilla and candy. The taste is dry and puckering upfront, tart, sour, acidic fruits, loads of tangy red berries, strawberry, jammy, raspberry, blackcurrant, slap of booze, fairly sweet later on, juicy, tangy and some sour cherry tangfastics. A proper slap in your face. Medium body and prickly carbonation. Fun for a third or so, but sure I would want much more though.
