Aftertatse is much the same. Sickboy282 (1101), San Diego, California, USA

| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Feb 19, 2005 Slightly musty nose, gold color, creamy nitro head. Creamy malt taste with a low bitter. Smooth texture with a medium body. Quick profile. Could use more hops - lots more. All in all a quality beer. SilkTork (4192), Rochester, Kent, England

This one is a keg bitter. One look and sniff immediately transports me back to the bad days of the 70s when beer such as this was taking over all draught ale sales. Metallic, ashy and cardboardy. Although overall, it was drinkable and not that offensive. But I won’t be drinking it again.

0.1% increase in alcohol content, this is still a very much different beer. A lot better than the keg old brewery bitter, but still just a cruddy nitrokeg bitter. Some more fruit than the regular.
Sampled on the Ratebeer London Meetup & Pub Crawl, December 2004. With Silktork, Chris_o, & Kook. Hildigöltur (5109), København, Denmark
