500ml bottle from Morrisons, Preston. Pours clear amber, short-lived off-white head. Basically just another slightly fruity, slightly nutty, but ultimately thin and disappointing British supermarket beer. The best thing that could be said is that it’s likely consistent. Not that I’ll be buying any more.

Bouteille: Hazy, amber coloured, stable creamy off-white head; mild to moderate spicy-hoppy and fruity-malty nose, almost traces of raisins detectable; light to moderate bitter-sweet flavour, pretty light bodied; lingering fruity-hoppy finish with a bitter aftertaste. A bit thin, but still good…
