Drinking this one looking at a Lowry-esque wall painting of the area old and new. Quite a modern lager for this part of the world, with a very good and crisp helles style, which is dry tasting and a tad sweet.

330ml can. Clear amber, small creamy white head, some retention. Aroma of sweet malts, light caramel, malts and citrus noted hops; quite fresh and clean. Taste has a nice fruity light yeastiness to it, caramel malts, citrus, a touch watery boiled sweet in the middle to end which is a shame, light bitterness running through, grains also. Almost an excellent lager but its still good.

Keg @ Northern Monk Refectory, Manchester. Black with a very light-brown head. Crisp lager, cannot really feel the dark malt, or even lager qualities too much in taste, mostly in aftertaste and they are better in aroma too. Drinkable regardless. BA version apparently although I didn't get this too much.
