Bottle as I was waiting for the in-laws to arrive after a long day of driving children around. The name still had connections, well to me at least, with Robert Maxwell, but the quality of this beer soon took my mind in a more positive direction. A classic and flavoursome beer with malt and bitter hops all in a low abv. Just a good bitter.

Cask @ White Lion, Ufford. Hazy mid-brown with a very thin head. It has a slightly sweetened aroma with sugars and fruit, but in taste it's rather bland. Has a lower bitterness.

Reddish brown and clear with a spotty off-white head. Oaky aroma, some venous and almost vinegar notes. Sweetish taste with a light bitter sourness in the long dry finish. More oak in the aftertaste. Soft carbonation. It's that increasingly rare beast: a decent basic bitter.
