Ray		07 Aug 2011	Dark golden malty, flinty ale typical of Inveralmond's house style. Not really to my taste.

McGargle		19 Jul 2009	Slightly tinny taste to 'complement' malty body. No hint of Saaz hops which still seem an odd choice for a robust ale. Served in good condition.

Ian		30 Jun 2007	Copper colour. Minerally, sharp, a little hard and tinny. Hops are on the earthy side. Drank it talking to a guy called Martin from South Wimbledon who was wearing a Horse Brass Pub polo shirt from Portland, Oregon. It really is quite flinty, the beer. Like licking a wall of a flint stone church with earthy hops growing up the side whilst sucking a Werther's Original.

Behind the Wall, Falkirk, Falkirk

No.2 Baker Street, Stirling, Stirling
