Unretired, 440ml can(s), Morrisons. Pours deep ruby with a creamy yellowish head that sticks around. Biscuity malt prevails with notes of chocolate and malted milk. The subtlest hint of roast and just enough sourish woodiness to keep you lifting the glass. Creamy palate. Shames bottled beers twice its strength. More 2.6% beers please that don’t compromise on body or flavour. Tasty Mild.

(draught keg in Baiborne Lees) not retired apparently. Dark brown with hints of red, small off white head. Malt aroma. Mild biscuit malt flavor. Actually not a bad session beer - I think it’s underrated here.

(draft) No head at all, but somehow managed to have very good lacing. A hint of caramel in the flavor. A slightly lagerish finish but not too fizzy. Not bad at all.

I had the canned version and it wasn’t bad at all. Yes, it is light in flavour and alcohol, but sometimes that is just what is wanted.

Can. Copper colour with beige head. Aroma is fruit, berries. Flavour is pleasent, fruit, caramel, malt. Ordinary beer.

440ml can. Brown with a creamy persistent head. Little aroma - bit of malt & caramel. Ditto flavour. Sweet and smooth but very uninteresting.

Can. Clear, copper body, and a beige head. Malty-sweet aroma, with caramel, but it is quite weak. The same goes for the flavor, but it is a bit more evident. Considering the low ABV, it is a nice one, but I would prefer it beefed up a bit, and a fuller body. (070914)

Canned. A decent aroma of caramel and maybe some sweet toffee. The appearance is a buttery brown with a creamy ’smoothflow’ head. The taste is difficult to find as it is very thin. However there is a little caramel sweetness as it warms up. It’s a bit like a sweet Shandy Bass in a way; beer for the playground.
