50cl can thanks to allmyvinyl. Appearance - golden amber with a decent head. Nose - light herb and custard notes Taste - dry malty; toffee and carbonation. Palate - light to medium bodied with a creamy texture and a dry finish. Overall - decent considering the crap appearance and general low expectations.

Golden, no head. Not much aroma but has a pleasant smoothness and a light small milky-bitterness that appeals.

440ml can. Pours caramel with a medium head. Aroma is dusty, bready boiled sweet malt. Taste is a bit watery, some boiled sweet fruit and caramel malt. Quite full in the mouth for the low strength.

440ml can. Amber with a thin white head; unappealing, grainy aroma; thin caramel flavour with some stale hops thrown in; and some sweet malt to finish.

Can. Deep golden colour with an off-white head. Aroma is fruit, malt, caramel. Flavour is fruit, malt, caramel, apple, hint of hop. Medium to thin body. Boring beer.

Can, courtesy of fonefan. It looks nice with its clear, deep golden body and creamy off-white head. Unfortunately it’s rather tasteless and lacking on aroma. Fruits and caramel on the nose, some bitterness in the fruity, caramel flavor. Really low on bitterness. Thin on the palate, quite dry, finishing with some bitterness and metallic notes as well as caramel and fruits. As mentioned, all is weak. Drinkable indeed, utterly boring indeed. 101016
