COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
With the introduction of SA Smooth in 2008 our smooth range was enhanced with the legendary SA Brand. The latest addition to our product range, SA Smooth has a lower ABV to appeal to a wider audience of drinkers. Although still yet to reach its first year in the market SA Smooth is already proving to be a well-liked beer and a pint worth savoring.

draught at the Roayl British Foreign Legion, Hay-on-Wye. Clear golden colour, small head. Really smooth mouthfeel. Malty and grainy with hints of caramel and some dusty hops in the finish.

Had this in the Ramada hotel in Wrexham. I once tried a lager in Wales, and to be honest, I wouldnt have washed my car with it. I HOPED the bitter would be better.....alas ! This beer was wet. That is about all I could say in its favour. Very generic of Keg beers, but THIS was poor. Sorry to any Welshmen I was just so disappointed with it.

Draught@Viisi Penniä. Amber color, tan head. Malty flavor, slight roasted notes. Somewhat tart finish. Medium body, medium carbonation. Not bad. Sessionable.

Frovigalning (1456) - Örebro, SWEDEN - MAY 7, 2012
On tap at the airport in Cardiff. It poured a brown-golden liquid with a creamy beige head. A bit smoked aftertaste and a bit boozey, specially considering the ABV. Feels a bit like they added a shot of whisky. Didn’t taste anything like the SA I had on cask at the Goat Major.

TBone (9414) - Pori, FINLAND - APR 30, 2012
Nitro keg@O’Haras
Pale amber color, creamy off-white head. Fruity, peachy aroma. Light-bodied. As name says, smooth palate. Watery palate. Light fruityness in the flavor, peach and banana. Light bitterness. "Extra Cold" and "Smooth", you get what you expected.

DruncanVeasey (5138) - NUNEATON, Blue Square Prem, Warwickshire, ENGLAND - MAR 28, 2011
Halves, Mimosa Kitchen and Bar, Cardiff Bay. Tea without milk copper, nitro collar, lace like cream. Clean biscuit and thistle aroma. Banks’s-like tea, honey and biscuits; slight soapiness, sultana fruit. Weetabix afters. Good clean nitro smooth- can’t quite believe I’m scoring it so highly, but rate as you find...
