Bottle ( Clear ) Yellow with a medium head. Strange slightly bitter flavour.
Not very impressive at all. Which is very sad as I can remember Ruddles as a respected producer of real ale and good bottled beer. Drinking this reminded of someone who seen better times and is now on their last legs. RIP Ruddles.
