Bottle from a now unrecalled source. Poured pale gold with a small bubbly white head. Light aroma of fruit, caramel and malt. Medium sweetness and moderate bitterness. Light to medium body, average to soft carbonation.

There’s not much memorable about this one, good or bad. It’s distinctly average.

Amber, small beige head. A little remaining carbonation. Smells of honeyed orchard fruits and hard spices. Moderately sweet with some biscuits and some sticky caramel. Gentle but lingering bitterness. For a bottled bitter this is fine.

bottle, pours deep gold with a thin white head. Aroma is floral hop and light hay. Light malty flavors end with a light bitterness. Easy drinker, but kind of boring.

500ml bottle from Sainsbury. Brakspear yeasty aroma, with some hop and some toffee malt. It’s clearly a Brakspear beer, that yeast aroma is very distinctive. Some hop sting on the end. Fine.

Bottle from Sainsburys. Pale amber with next to no head. A standard bottled bitter. Some fruit and grassy hop aroma. the flavour had a touch of sweet malt and a dry finish. Ok.

[i] Bottle from Sainsbury, Heyford Hill, Oxford [/i] Poured light golden in colour with white head. Nice fruity slightly crisp and hoppy beer with a lovely smooth balance between bitterness and honey sweetness. Really enjoyed this beer.
