Bottle. A thin, malty lager, with a hint of citrus and touch of bitterness in the finish. Glugabble but not much fun.

Keg at the Lamb, City. Citrus aroma. Dark amber. Creamy white head. Light bitter. Some zest. Underlying malts. Light. Thin. Slick. Fizzy. Slight finish. OK. Refreshing enough. Actually about 10x better than Inwqs expecting.

Half pint, gravicask at London Stadium before the match between West Ham and Arsenal. Bubbles on the surface, dotted spots on the glass, close to clear dark brown-reddish body. Smell of slightly roasted malts. Malt-driven flavours of earth, grain and distant dark fruits. Mid-sweet malty ending. Easy to drink. Quite alright on a football stadium. (London 12.01.2019).

Half pint served at a perfect temperature at Cask & Barrel, Edinburgh. Clear, amber body under a white, lacing-head. Rather discreet floral-malty aroma. Caramel malts in flavour, becoming gradually more bitter towards the ending. Foamy in the mouth (23.10.2008).

Can from Home Bargains, Manchester. Blonde with a carbonation and next to no head. Has a very light tasting lager character, so much so its inoffensive enough to drink! Mildly sweet there's not much about it, but is certainly easy in the palate.
