Nitro can. Aroma is light bread, sweetness and a small hint of spice. The flavor is light fruit, bread, malts and a mildly tart finish.

Two half-pints in Blackfriers Theatre (Boston, Lincolnshire) before and at half-time during ’Sleeping Beauty’ by The Vienna Festival Ballet on 31 Mar 2013. Dark amber body with a full creamy head that stayed the distance on both halves. It looked pretty good to be honest. Too cold to have an aroma at first, as it warmed a malty molasses and mixed dark fruits smell began to appear. The taste took its time to arrive because of the coldness, but it turns out the beer is slightly malty and semi-sweet throughout. Fairly smooth in texture as the name suggests, although I think smoothbland rather than smoothflow would suit it more.

Keg at Boars Head World Buffet; hazy dark amber pour with creamy white head, malt aroma, it’s is cold and smooth quite refreshing but ultimately bland.

Had it on time, some months before brewery was closed. In Birmingham. It was quite blond and soft, not so creamy but nice foam.

I would have dare said it was cream flwo but anyway. It was indeed smooth and a little bitter although very refreshjing and nice foam.

Tap at the Lakeside Country Club, Frimley Green - 05/01/13. Day 1 of the BDO World Darts Championship 2013 - how Bob Potter spoils us with great beer ! Hazed golden amber with a good sized creamy white head that retains very well. Good lacing ensues. Nose is light malt, touch of fruit, barley. Taste follows ... the blandometer is high! Light malts, grain, barley. Medium bodied, smooth on the palate (they got one bit right!) and moderate carbonation. File under ’C’ for ... CACK!

Hum. This tastes of nothing. I had a half at the bar at Sheffield crimbo market cos I was hating the shopping. Might not bother next time. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

Clear dark orange yellow with brownish lasting foam head, lipsticking and leavinf drinking rings. The foam head is blocking aroma, but the taste compensates that. A good bitter taste, nice long bitter aftertaste. (Immingwood 201212)

Keg@Butlins, bognor regis. Watching lazytown stageshow with daughter. Brown colour creamy head, decent lacing. Aroma is mild sweet malts. Taste of caramel and mild bittering hops. Average smoothflow, something I am not a fan of. Four more nights of drinking this, need to get out of here before I go to the otherside and start drinking carling.

440 ml Can: It pops open with a violent "whooosh", courtesy of the nitro-widget.... The head begins life by completely filling a pint glass, then cascades out to reveal a nearly clear amber beer.... Quite entertaining !!!! Scent is faint....sweet malt and a little candied caramel. Not a great deal of taste.....just creamy malt, caramel. Comes across as a beer milkshake, essentially.... Not much too it, but the flavour it has is nice, and it has a wonderful feel.

Pint at Revolution, Nottingham. Looked ok but I’m thinking it might have been a mirage as I didn’t taste it or smell it. Creamy nothing in a glass. Low score as I’m not convinced it actually exists.
