Bottled, Pasteurised. An amber colored ale, Black Isle Red Kite is brewed using only the highest quality Maris Otter pale and crystal malts for flavor and body. Challenger hops for bittering with the late addition of Styrian Goldings creates a balance of quenching citrus and malt, and a classic aromatic finish to this refreshing ale. This beer is bright amber with a toasted nut flavor and powerful orange fruit aroma.

3.3Pours a beautiful copper/amber with white head. Well balanced malty flavours with a subtle bitterness. Even some caramel. Good.
3.1Bottle from Sainsbury's. Pours a clear red brown with a fluffy sandy tan head. Lots of lovely bubbles in the glass. Nose is light with a treacle malt and little brown sugar. Taste has the treacle and brown sugar with a light boring leafy hop. It's light to medium bodied with a soft moderate carbonation. A fine bittersweet red ale.

3.6Bottle from Tesco, Stirling. Pours amber. Medium thick foam crest, bits of seafront lacing. This is not necessarily an exciting beer, but it is tasty and well made. Crusty UK hop type flavour, with bits of sweet malt. Fresh, with some rye berry effect.

3.9Bottle from Beer52. Deep copper with a lasting beige head. Toffee and minerals at first, then warming juicy chewy malt, creamy butterscotch, berries, orange and earth with a dry finish. Not big punchy flavours, but great balance and good depth. A top-notch and very satisfying bitter.

3.5500ml bottle. Pours an deep copper red with an off white head. Didn’t get a huge amount from the nose tbh apart from some red fruit and toffee malt. Has a very light mouth feel and is fairly carbonated. There is much more in the taste though, sweet toffee and apple with some blackberry and bitter orange. Has a slight toasted and nuttiness to it and a touch of bitterness at the end. Pleasant brew and I love the fact it’s organic.

3.1Bottle drunk at home. Peaty butterscotch aroma. Hops well to the back. Burnished amber colour with creamy head. Sensible carbonation. Rich taste, not too sweet, quite earthy with a tone of Dundee Marmalade. A little cloying: Not my favourite style but the other half liked it a lot.
