Commercial Description:
Nitro Keg Ale and Canned Widget Ale. An export strength beer brewed specifically for countries outside the UK. It has the same smooth and creamy characteristics as Tetley's Smoothflow and incorporates a full drinking flavour. It is well balanced with a complex range of malty and hoppy notes, enhanced by a fruity aroma. Like Tetley's Smoothflow, it is served at 8°C to give extra refreshment.

On tap. Foamy persistent head. Light aroma. Amber tan. The taste seems more to mellow than crisp. Hops are present, but British hops seem more reserved than German noble versions. A full malt flavor, but only modestly sweet, which is good. Not a heavy or rich beer, but foam makes it taste creamy. A smooth mellow palate and finish, quite drinkable, but not really bright or refreshing. Most nitrogen brews seem to lack refreshing quality for me.

Widget can pours with great cascading effect and a copper color. Aroma is faint but it is slightly malty. Taste is malty with slight bitterness and it is very easily drunk. Texture is nice due to the nitrogen widget. Great session beer.

One of the easiest drinking beers I’ve ever tasted. Not a lot going on, but smooth and pretty tasty...it would be the perfect session beer if it wasn’t so expensive. Light copper color (or a dark yellow-orange), with a nice thick beige head from the nitrogen pack in the can. A slight buttery/diacetyl flavor, almost no hopps, and slight malt.

Pours a coppery colour out of the can, starts out like guiness with a very active carbination moving and swirling around. Head is crazy dense and an off-white colour. Smells sour and metalic. Taste is quite bland as well, slightly sour, slightly bitter and slightly metalic. Mouthfeel is really smooth and creamy, that’s pleasant... Aroma and taste, not so much. More of a session beer than one to sit around and enjoy.
