Bottle(@tibits,Heddon Street): Clear, ruby-amber coloured, small but firm off-White creamy head, visible carbonation,, clean and mild to moderate toasty-caramelly nose with a very delicate hoppy touch; light to moderate sweet-bitter flavour; slightly lingering malty and also a bit hoppy finish. IMHO not a Vienna, tastes more like a continental Dunkel...

Tap at the Birmingham Beer Bash 2013. Poured a crystal clear light straw colour with a broken white head. The aroma is big malt leading to a medium bitter flavour with a crisp, malty, yeasty palate and a smooth refreshing light bitter finish. As lagers go, this one really isn’t bad at all.

Pint at The Salopian bar, Shrewsbury. Distinctly average lager, not too much taste, fairly bland.. Grassy, straw with a weak aftertaste. Have had better beers from these guys.

Tap at the Windsor Castle, Lye. Poured a clear light yellow colour with a thin white head. The aroma is hoppy and resinous. The flavour is weak bitter acidic resinous. As far as lagers go this is somewhat different and rather drinkable.

Bottle at home in London - picked up at Cotteridge Wines. Pours clear, dark brown with a moderate, creamy beige head. Dry dark bread in the nose, some ash and earth. Light sweet flavor with tobacco, earth, some dried berries, faint leather, dusty cocoa. Light bodied with fine, massaging carbonation. Light sweet finish with dry chocolate, subtle roast, a bit of wet tobacco, burnt leaves. Nothing special but OK.
