Bottle from lowcostbeer, consumed 2 months before BBE. Pours a clear amber brown with moderate sized off white head. Aroma of sweet but light toffee noted malts, some hay. Malty and smooth but with a refreshing quality it has notes of caramel, citrus zest, hay, raisin. Much better than expected. Very tasty for a sub 3% malty beer.

Cask at Pig's Ear. Bright clear amber beer, small off white head. Light palate, semi dry, decent fine minerally carbonation. Thin malts, sweet enough, a trace of caramel. Thin orange and orange peel. Light finish. Clean but lacking flavour. And interest.

Fra fat på The Understudy National Theatre): helt uklar blekgul med fint skum som varer. Grapefrukt og aprikos, hint av furunål. Fin bitterhet i avslutningen, og egentlig ganske mye smak for en lettøl. Og enda et nytt bryggeri i dag!

Bottle from Waitrose, Saxmundham. Paler golden with a small head. Has a promising hoppy nose, but it is a weak hoppy taste, albeit a 2.2% version.

Bottle from Waitrose, Bagshot. Aroma is sweetness led- caramel, creamy coffee. Chocolate adds a hint of bitterness. Dark. Cola tint. Thin foamy beige head. Tangy sour berry streak. Develops dark chocolate and more bitter coffee. Slightly creamy finish. But tangy throughout. Light-medium bodied. Thin but creamy. Soft-fizzy carbonation. Long dry slightly astringent finish. Nice but unsurprisingly it feels a tad underpowered.
