Bottle shared in High Wycombe - thanks to Scoopey. Pours totally clear, pale gold with a frothy, white head. The nose holds cabbage, cereal, paper and hay. Light sweet flavour with more cereal, biscuits and hay. Light in body with average carbonation. Basic finish, with more hay, cereal, dried white bread. Quite basic overall.

Bottle in Cape Toon, BA lounge. It pours clear golden with a decent foamy white head. The aroma is fairly subdued... bit of white bread, mellow sweetness, straw and soda water. The taste is crisp, clean, quite watery, soda water, straw, grass and slight metallic vibe with a dry finish. Light body and moderate carbonation. very light and watery. Bland, but inoffensive stuff.

Bottle from The Savanna, Liverpool St Station, London. Pours a clear, pale gold with a small and short lasting white head. Aroma of grain and grass, with a touch of malt. Moderate sweetness, little by way of bitterness. Light/medium body, slight creaminess to texture. An ordinary pils.

Gammel utgått 340 ml flaske, men må jo bare teste. Ser fortsatt bra ut, gylden brun klar med fingerhøyt hvitt skum. Er nok litt FOR gammel denne, lukter rødvinseddik. Noe nøtteaktig karamell sitter igjen. Smaken var eddik, med noe søtlighet. Kan ikke rate til noe annet enn snitt.
