Bottle at home from Tesco. Last drunk 10 years ago on a boozy night in a Wetherspoon and I thought I would give it another try. A surprisingly big and pillowy head with the aroma of malt. The taste was malt, with some bittering hops and a flavour that is best described as wet cardboard. I also felt I should have chilled it down a bit more. The mouthfeel was smooth because of the malt, but I keep coming back to the wet cardboard. It's drinkable, but there are many better beers out there and I don't feel I will be missing out if I don't have it for another 10 years.

55cl bottle from Conad, in Rimini, Italy. Pours brilliant brown with limited white foam. Aroma is generic malty, not strong. Body is thin, with quite some carbonation, even too much. Taste is moderately sweet, with limited bitterness. Finish is short.

Bewertungstext vom März 2019:
"Auch wenn dieses bekannte Brown Ale primär durch seine süße Malzigkeit auffällt.
Dabei hat es aber doch noch ein paar interessante Aromen nach Karamell und Toffee sowie Cheesecake.
Ein britisches Bier, das offenbar aber in Holland gebraut wird."
Malzig ist es wahrlich noch immer.

Not a lot to say about this one. Cloudy lemonade pour, lemony aroma. On the taste it’s sweet lemons with a hint of lime. Thin body, moderate carb. Basic but thirst quenching. It has its place, possibly not a beer rating site. But I’ve had worse
