wyzzywyz22 (387), Wirral, Merseyside, England Jun 30, 2008 Cask, some boozer near Leicester Square, London. Struggling to know what to say about this really. Hard to detect much of an aroma. Insipid and watery ;flavour had some vague fruit and hop in there somewhere. Dryish finish. Inoffensive, but prettly average.

Slightly fruity smelling, good mouthfeel. Slips down a treat. Palidor19 (1325), Brandon, Florida, USA Oct 6, 2008 The English bitter is thin and malty and this one is no excpetion, its got a slight caramel and mild hint of honey, I like it alot. JoeMcPhee (3815), Jackson Heights, New York, USA Sep 20, 2008 Golden amber beer with a thin white head. Aroma is malty and lightly nutty. some soft toast and a kiss of caramel as well. Light fruit (pears/cherries). Not very hoppy but has a nice minerally character. Slightly fruity and a lingering malty sweetness. Soft minerally finish. Decent and drastically different from the bottled version. MrAleman (112), guildford, Surrey, England Sep 14, 2008 Updated: Oct 1, 2008Tried in a pub down south, it was called the Cat and Canary in Henfield. Great bitter, and i’d recommend it to any bitter lovers.
