Sep 21, 2005 True amber color, with a nice whipped head, but very still. Sweet cookie aroma. Mellowly flavored ... lightly malted with a grassy hop bitterness. Bit light on the palate.

Sep 15, 2005 Well, I’d say that this is a fairly drinkable beer. Light color. Some crisp malt, sort of toast, cookie flavors. Low on the bitter scale. Soft texture. I’d have more of these, but considering they were $9 at the bar I was at it wasn’t worth it.

Aug 26, 2005 Updated: Aug 29, 2005Pint bottle. Clear orange beer with a small white head and some lacing. Light malt and faintly hoppy aroma. Flavor is ok with a musty malt character, light hops, and bitterness at the end. A little thin. Dry, metallic finish. Mine was served a bit too cold, but remained a rather average bitter even when it warmed in the glass. OK but unremarkable. Overpriced at $4.39 for a pint bottle.

Aug 25, 2005 Ah suprizingly good bottled ale. Sainsburies seem to be expanding thier range to some better beers at the moment and this is one of thier better bottled bitters. Easy going session ale and well balanced.

Aug 16, 2005 Poured a cloudy amber, with a minimal off-white head and some lacing. A light malty nose, with a complementary start, grassy middle, and light hopping a the close. Not bad. Drinkable. My first bitter. Will try again.

Aug 12, 2005 I love this stuff. I keep tring new beers from supermarket but always come back to Coniston Bluebird Bitter. Never grow tired of it’s taste. Excellent with a curry.
Wish I could find it in a local pub instead of the usual crap they serve.

Aug 9, 2005 Slight traces of citrus and poured with a small head.Bottle conditioned but thankfully lacking the acid bitterness that this sometimes brings.I had expected a lot from this beer which unfortunately did not live up to my expectations.Quite bland really
