A 500ml bottle with a BB of July 2014, so it's a bit out of date. Hopefully still OK. Picked up a while back from a B&M store.

A: Poured into a straight pint glass. A clear golden-amber colour with good carbonation. Forms a smallish head of creamy white foam that rapidly reduces to a surface layer. Nice lacing.

S: Aroma of vaguely grainy malt with hints of husks, stewed leaves, overdone veg and mildly fruity ale yeast. Not much going on.

T: Tastes of light malt with a dry finish. Notes of husky grain, stewed leaves, overcooked veggies and subtle ale yeast. Well-attenuated, followed by a restrained, leafy bitterness upon swallowing.

M: Mouthfeel is smooth, tingly and dry, with prickly carbonation and a thin, watery body. Somewhat astringent, accompanied by an aftertaste of harsh stewed leaves, husks and faint yeast esters.

O: Bleh - unimpressive. A pretty bland ale. Looks about par for the course, while the aroma and flavour are a dull blend of light malt, stewed leaves and weak yeast. Watery, lacklustre body. Forgettable; doesn't trouble the senses. Give it a miss.

bottled, regular
Somer is a light golden, fruity beer complimented by a smooth finish.
Served slightly chilled, this refreshing beer is the perfect accompaniment to many foods
