Nitro Keg at the Storehouse, Amble. Pours clear golden amber with a thin white head. Aromas of light malt, little else. Taste is sweet and thin. Disappears to nothing.

On tap at a hotel outside Mansfield. Pale Amber colour with a tick cream head. Very slight floral aroma, but dead other than that. Taste was quite sweet. Very poor.

On keg at Matlock Town FC - Thought I’d had this, a very familiar feel to it. Typically good looking nitrokeg look, amber body, solid white head. Nose is a sweet caramel, a bit of malt and the taste has a similar feel too. Nitro helps this have a good mouthfeel, smooth and creamy. Very refreshing for its style.

Golden pale ale with a creamy head. Its aroma is light and and the tropical fruit flavours are mild in taste.

Two pints poured into UK pint sleeves at the Wellington cricket club bar on Sunday 9 Oct 2011 during a Christening party. Bright semi-dark amber body with a creamy foaming topping. This beer is cold when it comes out, it is also creamy, the nitrogen sees to both the temp and creaminess. No smell and the whole deal is weak, with only a slight bitterness in the taste. OK for none cask bitter men maybe, but not for me.

Keg at the Dudley Sports & Social Club. Pours orange with a medium head. Aroma is some orange and bready malt. Taste had a hint of orange and watery bready malt. Got better as it warmed.

Clear orange color, medium off-white creamy head. Not much aroma as most bitters, taste is smooth and creamy, some caramel malt.
