Bottle from Morrisons. Pours a dark orange colour with a thin white head. Not much of a aroma, just a hint of some caramel, the taste is of some fruit but the beer is a touch watery.

Bottle in the hotel room, Aberdeen. Pours vibrant gold with a foamy, white head. Sweet malt aroma, light toast and caramel. Sweet flavor, bready and slightly aged malts, caramel, mild leafy bitterness. Light bodied with fine carbonation. Sweet, lightly bitter finish, some slightly oxidised malts, a bit of bread and cardboard, faint grass. Not too good.

50cl bottle from Morrisons. Amber with a loose, rapidly dissipating, white head; stewed malt aroma; weak and watery with over-pasteurised malt flavours; and a dry biscuity bitterness to finish.

Overall - Must be brewed with hardly any ingredients - bland and watery. Not moreish at all. Might be better on cask.

Bottle from Morrisons. Clear golden colour, medium white head. Nose is light malted, bready. Flavour is light malted, bread, bit of fruits. Thin bodied. Watery finish.

poor. poured a washed out tea colour with a very bubbly head that disappeared. thin and watery mouth feel, far too much carbonation. a little malt but mostly that metallic flavour. for me the hops were almost none existent, but some evidence of a dry and slightly bitter finish was there. best left alone.

Bottled. A copper to bronze coloured beer with an off-white pool of head. A pasteurized smelling nose with cardboard and grain. Lightly lemony hoppy in the mouth. Pretty plain really.

Copper brown colour. Mild, slightly malty aroma. Mouthfeel is soft and creamy with a slight carbonation. Very well balanced mix of malt and hop.

50 cl bottle, Sheffield, UK. Clear copper colour. Frothy head. Spiced caramel aroma. Quite carbonated. Sweetness comes through then a watery pepper finish.

Dark golden/amber coloured, medium sized white head, nutty caramellish nose. Moderate malty, biscuity hoppy and light nutty with mild hoppy finish. A bit watery but in general ok bitter.
