MrRomero (1894), Wiesbaden-Biebrich, Germany Aug 21, 2007 Hand pulled from 12 Bells in Cirencester, UK. Poured amber with slight reddish notes and a moderate sized cream colored head. Light hop aroma with a touch of malt. Flavor is mostly watery with some malt and hops poking through but mostly water. Not a lot of flavor. Decent, I guess, for what it is. A low alcohol bitter. downender (1612), Bristol, Gloucestershire, England May 19, 2007 20 pint polypin from the brewery. A balanced bitter which maintained interest over a period of a week. Decent hops in the aroma and a slightly fruity flavour. Good, although I prefer the 4.2% ABV Dursley Steam bitter from the same brewery. chris_o (4409), London, Greater London, England Apr 22, 2007 Cask (gravity dispense) at Reading Beer Festival, April 2006. Amber colour. A solid, if unspectacular session bitter. Decent hoppy bitterness on the palate, underpinned by light, dry malt. Clean and refreshing. Nothing really stands out but it’s a good, honest supping beer.
Mungo (2474), Southampton, Hampshire, England May 4, 2006 Gravity Cask @ Reading Beer Festival 2006. Hoppy citric start leading into dry malts. Smooth bitter tasting finish. harrisoni (5331), Ashford, Kent, England May 1, 2006 Cask gravity at Reading BF 06. Copper beer. Yeasty/citrus bitter with dryish finish. OK bitter, nothing extraordinary.
