If you enjoy quality (proper beer) it's a lovely one. Got it before Christmas in a mixed case in Lidl, Got a few more to try:)

Decided to open the Arran 10.
Rather nice. Not too complex and has a little burn at end which is controlled with a teaspoon of water. Fruit and Heather for me.
Think I will have another..:eyebrows:

its a nice craft bottle and label with a wooden stopper so stylish too. not bad for money. Think it retails around £38 from memory but I paid a bit less, buying when I did.
Its deffo a nice little dram you can sup at happily all evening if you wished. Nice and light
As an accompaniment to tonight's meal (picture at https://theartofsound.net/forum/show...-Today/page767), we enjoyed this:
2018 Maison Gillard Dole des Monts, Valais, Switzerland
https://www.wine-searcher.com/images...9/10575429.jpg
Awarded a Gold Diploma, 'Expovina' Internationale Weinpramierung, Zurich 2019
25% Gamay and 75% Pinot Noir grape. 13.5% ABV About £13 a bottle.
This is only the second bottle of Swiss wine I've tasted, and unlike the first reported here, I really enjoyed this one.
Nice earthy nose, the taste starts as tart cherry finishing towards almond.
The blurb on the bottle states:
Nose: red fruits, strawberry, raspberry and cherry
Taste: fruity start, silky soft tannin, beautifully rounded
Can be drunk with red and white meats, charcuterie and cheese.
Arran is a very enjoyable malt.Quote:

Birthday pressie..
Wolfburn Langskip.
The wolfburn distillery was rebuilt after closing and becoming a ruin about 150years ago. When open tho it was the biggest distillery in area.
I'm guessing this is 5 Yr old as that's how long they have been making it.
I thought it right to lend sd one support. This is cask strength so being new too will need Liberal watering lolhttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...c762e5e308.jpg
Just back from our usual weekly jaunt up to the Highlands...
Treated myself to an 18 year old bottle of Glenrothes for lifting 2 more of the Scottish Manhood stones... And because I fancied a lovely sherried dram for a change to my usual peaty drops ;)
