I am having a mini-tasting with myself today, 17th March 2023. The wife is out with old school friends, so Bertie and I are home alone until they all turn up later to use our bar. A 500ml bottle of this is the first beer of my little tasting session; BB June 2023 and obtained from Virgin Wines. Poured into a vase shaped UK pint glass at 13:30. Crystal clear golden body, carbonation bubbles rising to replenish the smooth white crown on top. It's making me burp! Soft body feel, dry finish, no aroma, light hop bitterness. UK lagers rarely excite and sadly this is no different to so many others, the soft body being the only bit that sets it apart from some of the harsher ones we tend to brew.

Bottle at work. A clear mid golden coloured pour with a fine fading white head. Aroma is earthy grains, hint of smoke, straw, apple. Flavour is composed of semi sweet, smoke, rustic grains, tangy apple. Drinks more like a gold. Palate is semi sweet, light grains, moderate carbonation. Passable.

Cask-conditioned, on gravity, at Swansea Beer Festival 25/8/2018. Golden in colour, with a slight, white, head. An easy drinking lager, with some a hint of lemon, crisp malts and a pleasantly bitter finish. Good.
