Keg at the Anchor Tap, RB Christmas pub crawl 2004. This beer must’ve made such an impression on me that I neglected to enter my notes at the time (and I was quite punctual with my ratings back then). Copper colour. Thick, creamy head. Thought I caught a fleeting glimpse of malt in the aroma but it didn’t last. Lacking in flavour. Easy drinking and inoffensive, clean but entirely bland. Better than the Sovereign.
