500ml can from the LCBO. Aroma of sweet malt, and light caramel, with some english hops. Flavour is a tad bit wattery, but the hops and malt are present. As it warms it develops a rather nice caramel quality. Very drinkable, and quite nice. But like i said, it’s wattery, but i would really enjoy it as a session ale.

Аромат в целом в стиль, есть правда немного странный запах от солода, при этом карамель небольшая, хмеля почти нету. Цвет полу темный, пенка кстати весьма пышная и красивая. Вкус не очень. Солод с слегка ржавой водой все портит. Наверно почти едиественное пиво из списка Майкла Джексона которое немного разочеровало.

Bottle from Waitrose, Solihull. Pours a clear amber with small off-white head, some lacing. Aroma of sweet toasty malts, caramel, light resinous hop, metal. Taste has a nice bittersweet balance with caramel, bread, nuts, spice. Light bodied along with the pasteurisation may mean it lacks a bit of character and depth once you get past the initial flavour. Still its quite a tasty bitter.

Bottle from Asda, High Wycombe. I have to say I'm quite a fan of 6X on cask - it's possibly my favourite bitter from any of the UK's traditional family brewers. Up until now, though, I've never got around to trying the bottled version. So, here goes. It's deep amber with a lasting beige head and a moderate fizz. It smells and tastes malty, with caramel and chocolate raisins. There's a little woodiness. The pasteurised note is less evident than in some supermarket bottled bitters (although it is still there), but it's definitely thinner and fizzier than on cask. So... definitely not as good as the cask version, but it is one of the better bottled interpretations of cask bitters, and unlike many of its compatriots I still enjoyed it.

Bottle from Waitrose. Pours a clear dark copper colour with a large thick creamy off-white head. Aromas of bread and caramel. Taste is toasty bread, caramel, spice and a hint of dry dark fruit. Slightly sweet finish. Medium to full body and smooth slightly oily mouthfeel. Pretty good.

500 ml bottle, from British Corner Shop. ABV is 4.3%. Deep copper to reddish amber colour, moderate white head. Aroma of malts, brown bread, a little fruit, moderate earthy hops. The flavour has a slight acidic fruitiness on a firm background of dry malts and brown bread, moderate earthy hops in the finish. Pleasant to drink. .
