This is the original Cotswold lager, brewed in the UK. Bold, yet balanced, with a smooth body and top notes of light citrus complemented by a subtle, crisp bitterness and malty backbone. Premium Lager is the high quality lager we all deserve.

330ml bottle from Connollys Wine Merchants, online. Pours a clear gold, small white head which lasts well. Aroma is sweet malts, grassy hop with a hint of spice. Taste is bready, very grassy, long bitter finish with a sweet tang, spice notes. Light to medium bodied, smooth. Slightly too sweet but its still good for a pale lager.

Clear golden, big white head. Malty, grains, light citrus and grass, crisp. Medium body.

Keg at the Fleur De Lys, Dorchester on Thames. Blonde in colour with a barely-there white head and very light fizz. Honey and caramel are to the fore here with just a light grassiness in the finish. It’s a bit too sweet, but still better than most of the macro lagers out there.

Bottled. A golden beer with a thin white head. The aroma has notes of malt and straw. The flavor is sweet with notes of malt, straw, and caramel, leading to a lightly bitter finish. Thanks yespr for sharing.
