Bottle sample at a tasting at the Beer & Beyond shop. Thanks troubles. Pours golden with a medium head, aroma of butter, corn and malt, flavor of malt, light acidity and nice bitterness, light bodied

Bottle sample at a tasting at the Beer & Beyond shop. Thanks troubles. Clear deep golden. Aroma of wort, cereals and a bit of cardboard. Sweetish flavor, grainy and worty, with a slightly drier finish with light bitterness. Rather light-bodied.

Bottle Sample. Slightly hazy deep golden color, minimal head. Aromas of wort, bread, some earth and faint grassy hops. Light bread flavors, soft malt, low bitterness and faint fruitiness. Light and almost watery body, slightly grainy and OK for what it is.

Bottled 08/03/13. A copper coloured beer with a white head. Caramel and cardboard in the nose. Sweetish sugar water notes in the mouth. A thin body. Not nasty but dull. There is a reasonable fruitiness. Moving on.

Not stunning but passable. Great straw yellow colour. Gentle hops and malt. clean ending. The kind of thing to drink on a hot sunny day.

500ml bottle. Clear orange amber colour, foam white head which leaves some lacing and a malty cereal aroma. Sweet and malty, with only slight bitterness, through to a dry finish. Light body and medium carbonation. OK considering the low strength.

Bottle 0,5ltr: Clear copper coloured brew with an fine fruity taste and an faint bitter finish.

Bottle from Tesco Exmouth. Clear yellow, mid-sized head. Malt flavours dominate, with some shy but quite ok hop flavours in the finish. Easy-drinking lightweight.

500ml dark glass bottle from Morrisons. Soft toffee sweet beer with dry finish. A decent enough session beer - doesn’t feel like a 2.8%. Not my thing but quite drinkable.
