Bottle from Asda, Enniskillen [240815]
Dark amber, clear, frothy white head, slight lacing
Aroma - dab of caramel, bit artificial fruit notes, not much on the nose overall
Taste of light caramel, some odd fruit notes, cardboardy, not much flavour and what’s there is poor
Palate - Medium carb, light body, soft sweet, watery. Finish is slightly dry, hint of bitter twigs in the tail
Overall - Difficult to drink this as the flavour is very poor. Not worth a £1 a bottle. Crap.

Can drank out of boredom on an Easyjet flight. Pours clear golden with a big white head into my quality plastic cup. Aroma of grain, cardboard, light malt and not very much else. Flavour is the expected light sweet and bitter. Light bodied with over moderate carbonation. Nothing interesting here, but at least I’ll be in Berlin soon..

Bottleshare at Leighton’s Stratoflat. Can from Dan the Man. Clear gold beer, thin pale cream colour head. Palate is thin and mildly dry. Very modest carbonation, especially from a can. Thin pale malts, some paper. Trace of creamy sweetness. Esters and a whisper of something fruity. Light semi dry finish. Macro nonsense.

Bottle shared at Leightons place. Thanks? To Daniel for this one. Light golden orange coloured pour with a fine white head. Aroma is sweet nutty malts, diacetyl, light English hops. Flavour is composed of watery grains, light toffee, nutty, light grains. Palate is watery, thin, low carbonation. Dog shit.

25th May 2015: shared a draught one with the wife in the Irvine Yard House. looked fine, golden with a full head of smooth foam. Creamy and smooth feel to the brew, but very little aroma or taste: some hops maybe but not much of anything. Only bought it for the rate to be honest: It is one of the most higly rated beers I had not drank until today. I do remember the original Boddingtons Bitter from Strangeways, Manchester, this is nothing like that old cask brew.

500ml bottle from a supermarket. Pours a clear amber with bubbly white foam head. Light caramel aroma. Taste is a bit one-dimensional with light, soft caramel malts. A standard old-school pale.
