Caffreys

Dark gold amber with creamy head. very smooth (nitro) and too flat. nicely honeyish caramel malts. just a bit hoppy and I don’t understand the classification "Bitter" but OK beer.

440 ml can. Clear orange, with a thick and creamy white head. Mild and simple aroma of malts and some bitterness. Flavour is mild, slightly sweet and fruity, with some hoppy bitterness in the finish. Watery. Yet another beer that looks better than tastes.

Pours milky with a persistent soaplike foaminess. No discernible aroma - but at least not offensive. Weak, vaguely beery taste. Thin mouth feel. Very short finish. Maybe I got a bad can, but this was much worse than a macro-brewed Canadian ale! Will not try again.
