Beautiful dark amber color; yoghurt-like head. Nice aroma, malty and a bit fruity. Smooth, a bit malty, caramel, correct bitterness. Easy to drink, quite simple.

Nov, 2004:Wet cotton wool. Like drinking a bri-nylon shirt. There’s nothing really bad about this beer. It’s wet, tasteless, bland, smooth and slips down like the proverbial whippet under the bedclothes. [2.2]
March, 2005:Nitro-can. Initially seems like Caffrey’s, but this has some hop bite. It’s a cleaner, more noticably Bitter beer. It doesn’t have that soft apple character. I prefer this to that - but not by much. [2.3]

The most bizarre combination of words "Guinness" and "Bitter". Widget "menthol" can. Not bad at all, though everytime I take it quality and taste differ. Deep amber colour, high (of course) creamy head. Fruity and hoppy notes. Dry metallic aftertaste.

Tinned, widget thingy, pasteurised. Brown beer with nitrogen flush through, cream false head. Watery thin tasteless beer except for a sharp tinnt background. Pitiful.

In the tin. Golden with a dense foam taht never disappears. Aroma is creamy and slightly metallic. Flavours are watery, smooth with some metallic hops. Because of the smoothness it is possible to drink a can in one go.
