Aaahhh this is how a British bitter SHOULD BE. Lovely tasty stuff
Dark nutty color with a fine off white head. Good lacing. Looks nice and inviting. Medium + body and a fine carbonation level. Fine pleasant intensity in the aroma. Bready, fruity, caramel and herbal hoppy flavor. Lasting end.

Shared bottle at Cardinal, Stavanger. Pours copper with thin head. Aroma of caramel, dried fruits, honey. Medium bodied. Fruity-bitter with some sweetness. Fresh and drinkable for a bitter.

Bottle from Blacker Hall Farm shop, near Wakefield. Boosh!! This is bad! BBE March 2014, but this is awful. Like iron filings. I’m just glad I got as part of a four for five quid offer.

500 ml bottle, Cardinal Pub & Bar, Stavanger. ABV is 6.0%. Brown colour, moderate off-white head. Aroma of malts, caramel and ripe berries. The flavour is malty with notes of caramel and brown bread, but is not too sweet. Hints of berries. Decent English hops in the finish. Very good beer.

Fra flaske på Cardinaltreff sep-13: en typeriktig bitter både av utseende og smak,, men i sterkeste laget for tradisjonell pøsebruk. Meget god, elegant men ukomplisert. Ny flaske på samme evenement jan-15: en saftig og god bitter er konklusjonen.

500ml bottle. Copper amber colour, creamy off-white head leaving lots of lacing and aroma of malt caramel & toffee. Taste is sweet malt, slightly roasted, with caramel, toffee, brown sugar, raisins, fruit cake and some lingering spicy bitterness. Smooth mouth feel, medium bodied, medium carbonation, warming alcohol comes through at the finish. Quite OK.

Craft Clerkenwell. Clear amber beer, no real head. Palate is light with very moderate carbonation. Mild dry malt - light caramel. A little tangy dried fruits. Semi dry finish. Mmmmm. When I think back to 1978 and what a great single Identity was - this is a remarkably flaccid tribute! It really falls short of the brashness and inventiveness of the band. Perhaps I’m expecting too much.
