Commercial Description:
Keg, Regular;
Marston's Smooth has all the easy drinking qualities you would expect from a smooth beer, with some extra - a truly distinctive and full flavoured taste. As with all our beers it is crafted with the finest ingredients. Prize winning barley delivers its full and malty flavour and our use of traditional English Golding and Fuggle Hops combine to create the clean, bitter taste. The late addition of American Cascade Hops delivers its enticing aroma and moreish citrus finish. Marston's Smooth is a smooth beer with an ABV of 3.6%. You will find it available of draught nitrokeg in select pubs nationwide (UK).

can 50cl, from supermarket in magaluf, spain. quite faint aroma i think it has sweet notes. golden colour small thick vanilla colored foam. sweet (vanilla / sugar / faint corn. nice sweet) dominates. almost no bitterness, however a little bitter in the aftertaste. nice brew, but quite sweet. good sessio beer if you are into the sweet ones.

Nitro Keg at The Pepper Pot, Banbury. Murky brown with forced head. Typical pasteurised nitro beer, full of nothing, just cold and malted. Poor stuff.

Can, with nitro capsule. Golden color. Just a hint of apple in the aroma. Mediium bodied. Malty flavor with some flowery hops and cake dough. Butterscotch. Surprisingly drinkable.

Tap at the woodmans. Nitro keg at about -40*. Its inoffensive in that theres nothing to taste, but the nitro character is outstanding. Who knows how they managed to get such a thick head on it and how they managed to serve it below 0* without the line freezing?

On tap at the Sportsman. Nose was bitter with a slight hop tingle. Mouth was sherberty with ’shook up barrel’ fruit and hop tones. Mouth a bit malty. Nothing to write home about by any stretch.
