Draught - Wellington Birmingham. A golden yellow coloured beer with no head. The aroma is sweetish and crisp with a little grassy hop. The taste is clean and cold. Crisp but nowt much else really.

Clear yellow, small white head. Pleasant grassy hops and fruity nose. Taste is grassy and lightly fruity but sadly less hoppy than I expected. Short finish with light bitterness. Definitely not a tasty beer but still a nice summer beer. The type of mass-marketable easily-drinkable beer that north-american macros should make if instead of just promoting generic beers using tv ads with cute babes they would actually try to sell a different taste… using cute babes in tv ads.

Draught, but tapped horribly with too much rinsing water in the glass... Very clear pale gold, with a very dense, fine-bubbled white head. Grassy nose, "herb", bit with very little distinction, rather neutral. Very dry, hayish, wheat flour-like taste. Neutral again, but in the positive way this time. Finish is slighlty smokey. Reasonable German Pilsener. Pity for the nose.

On tap. Light golden in colour with a small white head. Weak and thin. Hints of malt and hops. Too sterile.

clear golden color head diminishes extremly fast smells malty-sweetish but a bit hoppy too,some bread-like smell very carbonated tasts malty and hoppy, aftertaste malty,hoppy,bitter-sweet(more bitter than sweet),at the end only a artificially seeming bitterness stays,but stays very long Not very bad,has more tasts than some other,but the bitterness at the end is rather harsh

Golden with a hint of haze, constant effervescence and a small, white head that fades quick. Pale malt aroma is strong and sweet like DME or Ovaltine with a touch of lemon. Strong malt presence in a mid-bodied bier with light bitterness to finish. Tasty and refreshing.

Fizzy pale yellow color with a medium frothy white head. Aroma of sweet honey and mild grain. Very grainy with some corn flavor and light honey.

(Tap) Good looking Pils. Pours yellow with thick white head. Tastes like many other German pilsners. Bitter, yet refreshing.
