Halfpinf from keg in a pub in Brighton. I just HAD to sample the infamous Madri. Golden colour, white head. Sweetish aroma of pilsener malts and some grassy hops. Sweet flavour with a slightly sharp bitterness in the finish. Utterly forgettable.

Taster from keg at ibis Hotel Brighton City Centre. Golden to orange colour. Terrible aroma and flavour of artficial "mango", also hints of artificial "passionfruit". I like real mango, occasionally even in beer, but not this crap. There is no way I could have finished a pint of this.
