Unclear orange with a low head and almost no carbonation. Some herbs and berries with a dry feeling. Very clean and refreshing.

(Bottle from Co-op, Long Stratton) Poured a brown clear colour with a big solid head that lasted the whole drink. Sweet malt smell with a bit of hoppy citrus and lots of caramel. Quite a lot of hop nose for a bitter. Good bitter hop taste which evolves into a dry finish. Hint of biscuity sweetness and a little bit of bready malt. Hoppy for a bitter, but it works very well. Just enough carbonation to keep it lively too. Good solid bitter.

16.9 oz. Light brown pour with a darker white thin head. I noticed that this was an older bottle when I got home. Best before 21 Nov 07. It had a slight sweet aroma and had little carbonation. I thought it was a good tasting beer. It had a dry bitter aftertaste to it. I would buy this again.

Bottle. Poured with a thin pale head, a pleasant light fruitiness, lemony? Smooth palate and very pleasant taste although not to strong. Could sink quite a few of these in a row if given the opportunity!
