Pours a slightly hazy golden colour with a medium sized frothy white head that didn?t last. Aroma is light biscuit malt and orange, similar taste but thin and watery. More light citrus in the finish.

Bottle from a local supermarket. Poured clear amber with an average sized off-white head. Aroma of malt and caramel. Moderate sweetness and light bitterness. Light body, thin texture. Carbonation is soft. Not impressed.

Can of the "Original" version at a work quiz night, poured repeatedly into a small disposable plastic water cup- not one of my classiest drinking experiences! Was quite surprised to see it’s a separate rate to the keg version- had assumed I’d just be doing a re-rate. It’s a slightly murky amber-brown brew with a thick off-white head. A surprisingly fruity flavour with caramel and tea on the side. Sweetish, smooth and very easy-drinking. Very little hop presence at all. It’s not great, but it’s much better than I expected (although I should stress that my expectations were pretty low). It’s also much better than I remember the keg version being (and I’ve had the keg quite a few times) so maybe it is different enough to warrant the separate entry. Anyhow, it powered our team to winning the quiz, so it can’t be all that bad.

Black color with a fine creamy off white head. Mild roasted aroma. Medium body and a soft carbonation. Quite tasty considering it is only 2,8%. Mild creamy roasted malt and toffee flavor. Not to thin texture. Decent ok mild ale.

Canette. Nez de malt du genre caramel doux avec des notes de rôti, léger de houblon herbeux (notes de foin) et quelques notes fruitées (pomme). Plutôt mince en bouche avec un pétillement nul et une texture crémeuse due à l’azote avec des notes aqueuses. Quelques faibles notes fruitées (petites notes de pommes) lors de l’entrée en bouche rapidement suivi d’un goût malté de pain légèrement rôti, léger de caramel doux et de noix puis une finale très légèrement amère de houblon herbeux (foin) avec de faibles notes métalliques. Arrière-goût moyen, très légèrement amer de houblon aux notes herbeuses ainsi que quelques notes de noix et métalliques. [notes 2005]

Cask pint in The Raven, Wellington Shropshire on 5th Match 2016. Clean and clear golden pour, steady white cap on top. Thought this a whole lot better than the bottled version I had back in 2014. Refreshing and thirst quenching, floral notes in the aroma, hops led the way flavour wise. Better than I expected.
