440ml can from Sainsburys. Gold colour with thick white head. As a student, I drank a fair bit of this especially in The Pilgrim pub in Liverpool. So interested in this. Aroma is fairly horrible. Some corn and cereal even some tinned salmon skin. Bit of lemon maybe. Not much in mouth and then lemony crispish finish. Bit more lemon. Not entirely awful.

UPDATED: MAR 4, 2011 Can. Pale golden with a nice dense, white head leaving lacings. Malty and hoppy aroma, but quite weak. Flavor is much the same. Thin to medium body and a finish with some bitterness and metallic notes. "The taste of Britain" it says on the can. Think not! Rating: 4-3-4-3-9-2.3. 060410
Can. A clear, golden beer with a small, off-white head. Weak nose with some dms. Grains and a fruity touch as well. The flavor is pretty much the same, boring and all that. Not much going in here, but at least it’s quite clean. 110403
