2.4 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 9/20
Draught (Olde Bulls Head INN, Beaumaris): Copper coloured, firm and lacing off-white head; faint fruity and malty nose with almost no bitterness; faint bitter-sweet flavour, mild fruity-bitter finish. Well rounded, but all in all very boring. Tastes like a cheap german Alt.............!
2 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 8/20
Can "Creamflow draught bitter".
Clear amber color, creamy white head. Aroma of aspargus or some other vegetable, bitterish. Metallic or "hard watery" mouthfeel. Very watery, some oaky bitterness added. Really "session beer": no taste, no alcohol, coloured water.
1.5 AROMA 2/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 1/5 OVERALL 6/20
Draught - Peterborough Greyhound Track. An excellent choice for the first step of my third millenium - not. Actually this is better than most English smooth beers , there is even a little lemony hop in the taste. The appearance is amber with that nasty creamy head., whilst the aroma is watery and gassy. It is very dull, but at least there’s something in there - just.
2.2 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 9/20
Pint on tap. I usually choose Worthy’s after a John Smith’s. Similar style beer but with less taste. Good head with a dark amber colour. Not bad beer, but there better out there. Good session beer down the pub possibly.

2.7 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 12/20
Nitrocan. Slightly orange amber, clear, typical nitro head. Soft malt nose. Palate is on the watery side with some caramel and a mildly bitter finish. Decent enough, but nothing stands out.

Im not sure what to say about such a flavourless liquid. Creamy texture, a little nothing.
