B.O.W.W.O.W.

Beer of the Week:
"Wildcat," a dark amber ESB from Cairngorm brewery at 5.1% ABV. "Wildcat" is heavy with sweet caramel and roasted malts (scotch ale in tendency) with a light bitterness and berries coming through in the finish.

Whisky of the Week:
"Benromach" 12-year, another Speyside Whisky (in the town of Forres), has a bitter-root and floral quality. This smoother, more delicate character lets the herbaceous qualities stand out. The finish is soft and woody.
