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.

An amber beer with a smooth fine head. It has next to no aroma. The flavor is soft, sligthtly sweet and fruity with an OK bitterness. A little light. A fine beer - but very standard.

Good color in this amber pour and thin head. Good lacing. Suffers from being almost average, but definitely a decent draft bar beer.

Whipped butter and weedy hops and that about covers it. I found this to be unsettling, though more interesting than simlar canned brews.

On draught in Naperville, Illinois. Unexpectedly mellow, beautiful rich golden color, slight hoppy nose, highly drinkable. Not particularly memorable taste, somewhat dry. Fairly average.

I do not know why people give this brew such a thumbs down, because I found it to be quite tasty. Nice copper coloration and a malty nose with some bitter tones, all in all not to bad.

Fake nitro head, copper-brown colour. Sour malt in the nose. Slight bitterness on the front, slight malt ... as it warms you get a bit more mouthfeel. I can coax a bit of hidden alcohol (wow, at 4.4%) Very, very average ... but what can one expect but bland, one dimensional beer if the can has a widget? I notice something harsh in there (phenols?) but I may have an old can.

Yum. if there were a beer flavored milkshake... copper color, thick head, smooooooooooooth texture, nice bitter hops finish. Previous comments were for canned. Had this on draft in Naperville today and it was good, but perhaps overpriced at $5/pint.
