Tin with a widget. Poured deep orange with a thick creamy head. (Ja, this was designed to look good.) Faint malt aroma. Not unpleasant, but not from a good bitter either. Bland flavour, a little malt a little hop, no depth. Not unpleasant, but not enough to be good. Weak finish. Rather a weak showing.

Refreshing and smooth like hell, sweet flavor, nice mouthfeel. If you like this "kind" of beer, it is really great.

Smooth/easy drinking. Light aroma and flavors consisting of caramel malts, herbal hops, and bread. Not exciting or all that tasteful, but I could probably drink a few more.

[Smoothflow version on Nitrokeg at Mash and Barrel Bar, Haven’s Caister-on-Sea Holiday Centre] 2nd attempt at drinking this after my 20-month old daughter levelled my first pint, fortunately missing my dinner with it! A dead brown colour with large, creamy, lasting nitro head. More flavour than some nitro bitters - a little dusty hop bitterness well balanced against a little honey sweetness. However, over-riding impression was as weak, watery and unsatisfying as I’d expected.

[Unicorn Inn, Dolgellau] Deep reddish brown - seems pale compared to the brown-black of your usual mild. Not much flavour to be had here - a fleeting glimpse of chcolate and that was about it. Very smooth and easy to drink, but not a beer Iโll be coming back to.

Smoothflow can. Lightly roasted caramel aroma accompanied by floral hop. Amber color with a ferocious nitro head. Really creamy head. Near medium body with very mild nitrogenation. The flavor is slightly metallic; then caramel with balancing floral hop bitter. The finish is still slightly metallic, but itโs a soothing malt and hop reminder of Jolly Old.

Tetleyโs Original - 500ml can. AMber gold colour, slightly murky; thin white head; toasted malt aroma; caramel malt flavours, with some hops to balance. Not bad for a macro canned bitter.
