Keg halfpint, as Portobello London Pilsner, at The Shakespeare, London Victoria. Golden colour, moderate white head. Moderate aroma, some malts and herbal hops. Crisp and refreshing flavour, well hopped. A decent classic pilsener - no more, no less. One of the best British brewed pilseners I’ve had.

Sparkly gold and okay foam. Soft sweet grain aroma, nothing else. Taste is soft grain, vague hops, finishes way too wet. Unintrusive, which might work in some situations.

Tap at Anchor Bankside. Golden-amber colour, small white head and lace. Light fruity-grainy aroma. Light-bodied. Crisp, bitter-harsh, a bit fruity pils. Ok with food.
