Light amber beer with a small white head. This is a decent beer, thicker than you would think.

Draught: Nice head and color. It did have a unique smooth sensation. Mild taste. Wouldn’t mind having another. Would rate it the best of the standard pub brews while visiting the UK.

440 ml can (Extra Smooth). Crawley, England. Dark copper colour with massive off-white head. Very weak aroma. Flavour is bitter. When it gets warmer some chocolate comes out. Very smooth, no carbonation.

True to its name - bitter. Yes, there’s fruit, spice and sweet nuances to it, but ultimately, this brew taste like a concoction straight from a laboratory; not a brewery. The beverage is smooth but, not to the extent you would go ga ga over. Mediocre.
