Bottled (thanks to omhper for sharing!). Quite much black colour, minor brown head. Aroma is toffee, chocolate, some coffee and mild roasted notes with a strange kind of sweetness as well. Flavour is honeylike sweetness, some toffee, mild roast and liquorice. Even though the strange sweetness (probably from some exotic grain or something), this one is very pleasant. Some slight alcohol in the aftertaste.

Pours clear golden. Aroma is slightly sour malts. Flavor is along the same lines. A bit too much carbonation. Drinkable but not particularly enjoyable.

600 mil bottle bought from mini-market in Chelmsford, Essex. A not great pale lager which doesn’t stand out in any way from most other pale lagers. Fizzy, pale gold/yellow, little aroma/taste.

Large bottle (600ml?) from Wesholme Stores, Goring. Pale straw with a billowing white head; aroma of damp straw; corn syrup flavour; and a hint of bitterness and citrus to finish. Drinkable, and a good find, but certainly not memorable.
