Bottle: Pasteurised.
Adnams Lighthouse is developed from our Champion Pale Ale, a beer that won many awards from 1922 to 1980. With an ABV of 3.4%, this classic amber beer delivers a crisp, refreshing taste- With its light fragrance, lovely malt flavours and long hoppy after palate, Adnams Lighthouse shines through as another champion Beer From The Coast.
Cask version released as Pale Champion Ale for the 2009 JDW Festival.

Bottled (Kamppi K-market, BB 05/2010)
Clear amber color, small steady beige head. Caramelly, yeasty, nutty-fruity nose. Quite good body compared to 3.4%. Caramel, nutty hoppyness, resiny aftertaste. Simple bitter but it has lots of taste for being so low alcohol.

A medium bodied beer with nice citrus fruit nose and palate, slightly (malty)sweet on the finish. Very quaffable, could certainly sink a few of these. Morrisons, only £1.

500ml bottle (K CM, Kamppi)
Grainy aroma, some sweet caramel, touch of fruitiness. Pleasant carbonation. Thinish palate. Some fruity, peachy retronasals. Taste pleasantly bitter. Quite full flavoured for a 3.4% beer. Finish is pleasantly roasted at first, almost a touch burnt, then softens to fruity and resiny hops.

Sweetish malty aroma. Amber with little off-white head. Flavour is roasted caramel, raisins and little hops. Thin body. Finishes malty and hoppy bitter. Could use more body.

Bottle. Bronze with a malty fruitiness. Slightly hoppy finish with more flavour than I had expected considering its low strength.
