Dec 4, 2009 This review is on the original, the ceamflow tastes totally different to me. Amber colour with a thin head (ceamflow had a good head), malt aroma, and dry bitter malt taste. I think this could possibly be the best "mass produced canned beer" in the world but it has to be this one, the original not the smooth but that’s only my opinion.

Nov 14, 2009 500ml can. Cloudy and murky at first and then settles to a copper base with a rich creamy head. Aroma of malt with a bitter acird taste taht has strong bitterness. Smooth but very bitter and it could have a little more flavour.

Oct 19, 2009 440ml can, as shown. Clear golden copper colour, small off-white head that is gone very quickly, but leaves some lacing. Aroma of berries and malt. Grainy, slightly watery mouth feel, Mildly sweet taste at first, again a wee bit of berries in the flavour. Increasingly malty note and dry, bitter finish. Slightly metallic after taste. This is an ok "from the can" bitter, but not one I’ll order again. Among canned bitters, I prefer Boddington’s and John Smith Extra Smooth (in and of themselves average beers).

Sep 13, 2009 Canned, nitro. Good for a canned beer, I wouldn’t mind a session of these. Aroma is fruity, maybe muted by the nitrogen. Flavour is sweet, with bitter notes, nicely balanced. Good mouthfeel although watery, medium body. Copper colour and long-lasting thick white head.

Sep 7, 2009 Can, "Smoothflow". Brilliantly clear copper color with a thick creamy head. (On the widget front, that’s the fastest settling nitro head I’ve seen.) Grainy and light biscuit aroma. Very dry grain, light apple fruitiness and some wet dog biscut, though I’m not 100% sure I find that to be a fault. Almost an earthy hop bitterness on the end.
