12 oz bottle. Pours copper orange with a small off white head. Smells grainy and metalic. Tastes like bread, mildly fruity, sour and bitter. Has a very typical brittish beer flavor, like tea and kinda nutty, also creamy. Pretty nice beer.

12oz. Never rated because I usually only drink it when getting drunk. Of course: pours pale orange, fluffy head. Light on taste, easy to drink. Perfect for mixing black and tans.

Many on draft. Many from bottle. I don’t drink these all that often nowadays but gotta give it some love. This was one of the good ones back in the days when good beer was scarce. When I used to home brew I would use Bass as a reference point. This one is a classic.

I didn’t even realize I had never rated this beer. Had on draft. Poured an amber color with a caramel malt aroma. Nice malty flavor with a very mild bitter finish.
