Handpump third-pint at the brewpub. Up to 3.9% according to the pump clip.
A: Clear pale amber body under a thin, reasonably sticky off-white cap. Light lace. Ok.
S: Brightly fruity and malty, with apricot and apple fruitiness highlighting some biscuity malt. Not much in the way of hops - maybe some light floral notes. Ok, but forgettable.
T: Biscuity malt up front, with some stone fruit and crisp herbal hops behind. Solidly bitter finish. Not very dynamic, but clean.
M: Light body, low carbonation. Average.
O: Not a bad bitter, but not a particularly good one, either. I preferred their Mild.
Cheers!

Served into a UK half pint glass at the Tap East brew pub
Golden/Blonde in colour with a very small (almost no) head
smells slightly of hops, but not too strong in this area, also smells citrus and pine
a good bitter flavour and with slight citrus taste - maybe a marmalade/orange, but only slightly so
Mouthfeel - quite a light beer without much body but a plesant dry/bitter aftertaste
A fairly typical and well produced English bitter
