Wetherspoon’s, Norwich. This is a highly unremarkable bitter in my opinion. Unatracttive ’barnyard’ aroma. Clear orange appearance with minimal head. Medium hoppy taste delivered with a thin body and a basic bitter finish. Certainly one I shall not be returning to anytime soon.

Not a beer i’d choose on a regular basis. Extremely bitty. Can get this at cheapish prices from most Wetherpoon brances. The taste was of malt followed by a citrus flavour.. fairly uninteresting ale really - better to choose something different.

Subtle, well balanced and easy to drink indeed. (The Ship Inn, North Berwick -- as one of their guest ales.)

Cask. Clear amber colour. No head. Quite fruity flavour, some rough bitterness in the good way. Quite subtle, but well-balanced and drinkable.

Classic pale bitter look and smell, a small ammount of bitterness, some sweetness and straw. Not bad.

From cask at Heathrow terminal 5. Pours clear and golden orange with a lacing white head. Aroma is mild roasted caramel malty. Flavour is light roasted and bitter malty. Light fruity and roasted malty finish.
