Commercial Description:
Nitro Keg Ale and Canned Widget Ale. An export strength beer brewed specifically for countries outside the UK. It has the same smooth and creamy characteristics as Tetley's Smoothflow and incorporates a full drinking flavour. It is well balanced with a complex range of malty and hoppy notes, enhanced by a fruity aroma. Like Tetley's Smoothflow, it is served at 8°C to give extra refreshment.

This was from a widget-can. Poured a nice golden color with cascading head that was reminiscent of a golden-colored Guinness. After that I was kind of disappointed with the blandness of both the aroma and flavor. Very easy drinking, but definitely lacking in character.

50cl widget can. Beautiful looking beer, very active with a creamy head. After that, rather boring. Not much aroma and only a creamy flavour with hints of malt. Easy drinking but not great.

Huge head that disperses almost immediately. Fairly smooth drinking with a malty flavor.

Yickk - I still have a nasty feel in my mouth two days after having one. It looks cool and doesnt taste too bad initially, but the aftertaste and oily slick it leaves behind is a huge turnoff. I know its the style, but I like things to be crisper.

can from moseslikesbeer. now that is one beautifully pouring beer. the soft creamy head cascades down the glass in an avalanche of very fine bubbles. it eventually settles into a nice amber color with a silky off white head. it smells of toffee and milk. very unique feel as it enters your mouth. somehow creamy and crisp at the same time. has less flavor than expected but what is there is nice. a lite toffee/caramel flavor with a big hop finish. this stuff is dangerous, I could polish off an entire 4 pack of these without realizing it.

the head on this beer is awesome! and it mixes very well with the bottom of the beer. this beer goes down very well and has you thinking of the next one. very malty and creamy and no after tatse at all.

Pour is frothy Guineese like head. Light malt and mold smell. It’s short on flavor, just a flat lite malt flavor. But it is very drinkable. In fact I drank two of them in the time it took to rate it.

Can (440ml) 3.6%. Poured a copper colour with light amber highlights, once the beer settled down I was left with a ultra dense, off-white whipped cream head which was fully lasting. Aroma was of mild hops and malts with hints of butterscotch and caramel. Taste was thin with a very mild bitterness, biscuity notes with light toffee and butterscotch in the back. Light bodied with a super smooth watery/thin texture and a very creamy mouthfeel, short finish. A perfect session beer if you want to down a lot fast.
