Growler fill from the Low Cost Beer online shop. Pours clear pale gold with a thick white head. Aromas of lemon and lime, faint whiff of sulphur which dissipates quickly. Taste is lime, light sweet malt. Light sweet finish. OK.

Can from Garsons, West End. Aroma has tart line juice. Saline streak. Clear gold. Thin translucent white head soon thins out. Sour. Citrus. Tart. Salty edge. Peripheral malty hints. Light. Thin. Average-fizzy carbonation. Long dry astringent finish. Can't remember when I last had a Margarita... but this is much more punchy and sour than I was expecting.

A very drinkable ESB, light bitterness, smooth and malty, quite sweet and nutty. Quite a classic esb, very nice to just keep drinking this one.

[Cask at the Lord Raglan, Wokingham.] A hazy pale amber pour with a tight white head and lots of lacing on the glass; citrus aroma; light orangey citrus taste with a bready body; and a touch of grapefruit bitterness to finish. A light refreshing bitter.
