Adnams The Bitter (Bottle/Can)

Can. Stiff lasting head. Deep color, deep aroma, lots of flavors. Very malty, and well hopped. Refreshing and charming at the same time. A really good bitter. Me like

I quite liked this one, despite the mediocre ratings. Poured with a nice clean head, had a great aroma with an orange colour. The flavour was bitter to citrus.

Can. Amber colour with a white head. Light sweet caramel malty aroma and a light sweet caramel bitter dry, hop taste. Medium body with a bitter dry finish.

Amber color, good head. Good bitterness nice hoppy aroma and taste. A good bitter.

Bottle. Amber colour. Fruity malt aroma. Flavour hop and some fruit (pineapple). Bitter finish.

Bottle. Beer on the Pier brought by Shelton Bros. Rich, alcoholic molasses aroma. Cloudy amber body with an off-white head and nice lace. Mouthfeel is thinner than I expected from teh aroma. Caramelly; very quintessentially English. Too dry and airy though.

Bottled. Golden beer with an off-white head. Malty aroma with a hoppy fruityness and some caramel-notes. Malty flavor and a quite piney bitterness. Medium body. Nice and quaffable. (060430)
