Bready-sweet aroma with a wisp of grass and a rusted iron tone.
The wonderful malty smell is more pronounced in the aroma than taste. The breadiness is there but thinner, thin plate, lightly bitter (mostly long boil Goldings) no fruity esters to speak of, fast clean lightly bitter finish.
Mild, understated, approachable, good drinkability and a very clean tasting bitter but uninspired. Good for sessioning. Radek Kliber (3942), Toronto (Can) Krotoszyn (Pol), Ontario, Canada

| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | May 28, 2008 Bottle from Asda. Aroma is pale ale malt, grassy small citrus note and floural honey. Taste is similar, on the sweeter side of balanced but thin enough to be quite drinkable. The hops leave a strange grainy chalky character on the tougne. Intresting wee beer.

Interesting, though not particularly nice. Overly sweet and caramel in taste with lots of malt. Not bad; not good. maeib (4711), Wootton, Northampton, Northamptonshire, England
| 2.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 3/5 | 4/10 | 2/5 | 8/20 | Dec 17, 2007 Bottled. A golden coloured beer with no head. The aroma has boiled sweets and a bit of sweet vomit. The taste is sweet and greasy. Pasteurised beyond logic. Watery thin in places. Really very unpleasant and unnecessary. Doesn’t W&Y have enough beers in its portfolio? JonMoore (1561), Loughborough, Leicestershire, England
