For all of those who are prone to a bit of bullshitting every now and then, we offer this traditional pale straw colured bitter. We would like to dedicate this edition to politicians from every party. From what we can gather they are all full of shit!

50cl bottle thanks to allmyvinyl. Appearance - golden with a head that is there and then gone while you turn around to have a quick word with someone. Nose - sweet malt, maybe butterscotch, lemon maybe. Taste - more sweet malt and lemon which finishes more like lemonade. Definitely reminiscent of a shandy. Palate - light bodied with a thin texture and a finish that is short and sweet (which isn’t a good think in this style) Overall - appropriately named, methinks!

500ml bottle from the brewery online shop. Terrible label, definitely a theme with these guys. Pours clear gold, short-lived white head. Aromas of lemon and butterscotch, soapy, pale malt. Taste is sweet, shandy edge. Sticky finish. Not great. Bull shit by name...

Hazy amber beer, tiny white head. Dry palate. Odd malt - slightly soapy. Trace of orange hop with insipid bitterness. Dry finish with a skewed bitterish aftertaste. Poor!
