500ml bottle from Morrisons online. Clear amber, small off white head, minimal retention. Aroma is faint malts and stewed fruit; bog standard. Taste is like aroma, quite basic a bit thin, some biscuit malts and light raisin and orange zest. Not the best, but perfectly refreshing and drinkable.

Bottle from local Tesco. Not much of a nose really – just generally malty with a hint of rotting fruit. Pours the classic bitter brown with a small and transient off-white head. In the mouth it’s mainly sweet malts at first, with traces of caramel. Later on some hops come through and linger in the finish. It’s a standard bitter really, but quite tasty for its strength.

Bottle, 0.50l. Clear deep amber color with medium frothy off-white head and sparkling appearance. Aroma of cereals, fruits, grass and mild vanilla. Taste starts with light sweet toasted malt, follows by slight grainy and fruity sourness with dry mouthfeel, while finish is mild bitter. Light to medium body, oily texture and average carbonation in palate. Quite tasty for such low ABV...
