served cold, from can. i’ve consumed newcastle in a variety of forms (can, bottle, tap) and i definitely prefer in on tap, though it is quite cool to find such a quality beer in a can. anyway. it’s amber in color, it’s got a sweet malty aroma, it tastes pretty good for a "mainstream" beer. decent flavoring, slightly watery, but still good enough that i find myself ordering it every once in a while.

Bottle.

Can’t believe I never rated this one before. Color: look at the bottle. It’s clear glass. :(

Slightly off diaper-and-skunk nose. Toasted malt and malt powder slightly sour, lots melon, very little hop profile. Watery, pretty close to boring but not outright objectionable.

(Draught at Bull & Bear, Stockholm, 8 Oct 2008) Dark reddish brown colour with frothy, beige head. Malty, slightly roasted nose with grain, fodder and hints of dark fruit. Malty taste with notes of dark fruit, prunes, caramel, syrup and toasted grain. Low bitterness, medium body, rather sweet. Simple and boring.

Pours dark reddish-amber with thin creamy head. citrus malty aroma. Smooth roasted nutty medium sweet taste. low-medium carbonation. Subtle bitterness in aftertaste. Very drinkable...I’ll have another.

Bottle . Light Brown color, malty, nutty aroma. Flavor with notes of nuts,hops, and toffee. Flavor is much the same as the aroma.Thin mouthfeel, and fairly clean dry finish.
