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.

Pours a creamy, milk-like substance that eventually turns out to be beer. Very Guinness-like in the theatrics. Aroma is bland, and vaguely of caramel or cheap candy. Flavor is indeed creamy, but that’s all it has going for it. Very weak flavor, again reminiscent of Guinness, though these are reportedly different genres. Could’ve fooled me. Mouthfeel is like water. In the end, this stuff is a waste of time and liver power. Overall, poor.

2009 Nitro Can - Pours a dk golden with a beautiful bubbly show that results in a frothy, perfect tan head...aroma is sweet grain, a bit of lagery skunk, and some peach...flavour is thin on the front end, with some light cereal grain and dry malt...finishes with a subtle bitterness and zesty mouthfeel...I really liked this....

500ml can. Poured thick and creamy and settled to a dark amber colour. Strong bitter taste. White foamy head with a faint aroma. Tasted better after it sat for a while.

Yellow in color with a well established white head. Aroma was not really noticeable. Had a slight bitter taste with a dry finish. Really didn’t leave much of an aftertaste. Left a nice lacing on the glass. The bar really didn’t have it at the right temp.

440ml Can – Gravity Beer Market – Olympia, WA
Golden yellow in color smooth with a great falling of the beer as it flowed out of the can. This was a excellent brew. Loved the light bitter flavor and the finish was very dry and near perfect a very very good beer.

Can. (previous tasting from memory). I did not find this ale to be all that memorable. Not much to it, tasted kind of watered down.

Nitro... Poured clear, light amber with a huge head. Faint, malty and grainy aroma. Smooth palate with little carbonation on the tongue. Very little hop bitterness and was grainy and fruity/floral. A little salty and thick in the finish. Totally sessionable.

Can pours a clear amber with white head. Light buttery aroma is pleasant, but does not follow in the flavor. Biscuit, butter, grain, toast, light caramel, and tea. I think that tea flavor is what throws this off.
