[30/8/2008 - on tap at the Clocktower, Milton Keynes - ABV 4%] Moderate carbonation, decent grassy hop/ green leaf bitterness. Very easy to drink and decently refreshing. Although it is of course bland and a little watery and has a slight metallic aftertaste, this is one of the better macro keg lagers. Better than expected! [23/5/2010 - 440ml can at a BBQ] Out of a can at a barbeque, so expected it to be gopping, especially with the reduction in ABV since I last tried it up. Surprisingly it seemed very similar to the 4% cask version I had a couple of years ago - a reasonable, easy drinking lager with a little more flavour than the other mass-market equivalents.

500ml can from a corner shop in Derby - ABV 3.8% Straw with a soapy looking white head; some light hops on the aroma; corn syrpu flavour and a cardboard finish. "Probably the best lager in the world..." I think not.
