Keg @ Duke of Argyll, Soho, Several times in the latter 2000’s. Don’t remember it too much to be honest, rating it years later given it’s now retired so there’s no chance of tasting it again. Ordinary tasting with a carbonation is about it and not a huge difference from the current version available.

On tap at The Rose of York, Richmond, Surrey 23.07.11 on the Thames Tipple Pours gold with a white head and busy carbonation, there is a good clarity to this lager. Sweet, malty and with a touch of bitterness this is as I expected. A6 A4 T6 P3 Ov11 3.0

On tap the Princess Louise. Clear gold beer, very malty with a distinct caraway nuttyness. A bit different for a lager but would not want loads.

Tap at Ye Olde Cheshire Cheese. Clear yellow pour, super bubbly, with a foamy white head. Pale malt nose with straw hops. Lightly sweet, bready flavor with some cereal. Light bodied with average carbonation. More cereal and bread in the finish with crispy bitters. Not terrible, just a bit bland.
