@Indyman - Clear. Light brown. Has a strange aroma that reminds me of Japanese Mix rice snacks. Flavour is quite fruity. Has a really smooth rich texture.

tombyars (1494) - Saltcoats, SCOTLAND - JUL 18, 2014
Tasted this at the GRAF in the Briggait, Glasgow on the 27th June 2014. Gravity dispense. Crystal clear pale copper in colour with a thin off white head. Hint of malt grain short on the nose. Poor lacing and thin mouthfeel. Mixed malts deliver a robust rye grain base with a hint of redcurrant fruit. Earthy flavour to the hop resins impart a short bitter aftertaste which compliments the malt well. Finish is malty with dry grain husks and a slightly sweet red berry note still lingering in the mouth. Reminded me of Wadworth Blunderbuss in flavour and style.
