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.

Poured from a 14oz. can into a pint glass. The color is a creamy yellow amber, with a nitro cascade yellowish head. The smell is buttery malty flavor. Not very strong. The taste is a bit muted,a bit of a biscuit flavor with some slight hop bittereness. This was one of the few nitro based beers that I have had and this was a bit more livelier than expected.

Had from a nitrogenated pint can poured into a glass. I’m beginning to think I’m just not a fan of the texture/mouthfeel of this style of beer... could barely finish it.

16 oz. can. Light amber color with a thick creamy off-white head. Aroma of honey and lightly roasted malt. Taste is watery and on the malty side, has a tea like character. Sweet (honey) finish.

16oz nitro-can served in an English pint glass. Crystal clear copper pour with a thin head of creamy off-white foam that lasted the entire glass. The aroma had muted caramel, dusty malt, and also a bit of toasted bread. Faint and dulled by the nitro. The flavor had sweet caramel and toffee followed by toast and some mild English hops. Slight metallic aftertaste. Not much to it. The mouthfeel was light-bodied and a touch creamy. Flat out boring...I wouldn’t even consider it a session beer because one was more than enough.

Not dissimilar to Boddingtons. This poured from the widget can into a lovely dark amber colour with a fine creamy head which left a bit of nice lacing. Aroma was mostly that of malt, but not overly so. Taste was slightly malty, in a pleasant way.

Sampled at JRHB club meeting. Somewhat shocked to fine that I didn’t have a rating of this yet. Medium amber, decent head. Aroma is lightly of caramel malts with faint, earthy English hops. Flavor matches. Not bad, just sort of there. I like a bit more bitter in my bitter.

(Sample Date: 7/8/2009 Source:Other) Caramel maltiness with light earthy hop aroma. Clear light brown with small fine white head. Light body and mouth feel. Caramel maltiness with a light earthy hop flavor. Finish is medium with touch of residual bitterness.
