look: 3.5 | smell: 3 | taste: 3.5 | feel: 3.5 | overall: 3.5

Enjoyed on tap with dinner on our vacation to Glasgow.
Dark amber color with a decent sized head, good retention that leaves behind a ton of lacing.
Smell of sweet malts, maybe some wheat beer aromas, no real discernable hops. Taste is thin with no one flavor jumping out. I don't want to say bland, just not alot going on. Average taste and flavor, thin body and mouthfeel. A drinkable sessional because it won't overpower your taste buds, or fill you up. Not sure about it being 'the best'.

Serving type: on-tap

At only about $2 a tall can this is a decent bitter with the creamy mouthfeel of a nitro can. The beer is certainly not too complex but I enjoyed the toffee notes and the smooth finish. As Fall approaches this is the kind of easy drinking beer that replaces the wheat and light lagers from the summer. I prefer the Courage Directors Ale in cans for the same price but I will buy some more of this brew.

Serving type: nitro-can

3.73/5  rDev +14.4%
look: 4 | smell: 4.5 | taste: 3.5 | feel: 3.5 | overall: 3.5

Appearance is typical of a nitro beer. About the same as a kilkenny, maybe, a touch lighter.

Smells of sweet grains, and some light fruityness. Actally smells pretty dang appealing right now.

Taste is so-so. There's that same yeasty fruitiness, soft breads, and then some toasty grains. Not as sweet as the smell would lead you to suspect. Just a touch of a dark toffee or caramel there, too, but overall the impression is more toasty biscuity than caramelly.

Mouthfeel is on par with a nitro beer. Satisfying, though a touch on the thin side I think.

Overall - decent, but not somethign I'd seek out.

Serving type: nitro-bottle

On tap at the Ensign Ewart, Edinburgh

A: Light amber, a very huge 2 finger head that hung around. Great lacing.

S: Light malts, honey,

T: Malty, toffee, sweet, frothy, creamy. A slight bitter finish.

M: Medium with creamy carbonation.

O: A decent bitter. Obviously much better on tap.

Serving type: on-tap
