A 500ml bottle with a BB of Jan 2016. Acquired recently from a B&M store. Brewed for the recent six nations rugby tournament.
A: Poured into a straight pint glass. A crystal clear marmalade-amber colour with medium carbonation. Forms a decent head of white foam that lasts for a minute or two before settling as a patchy surface layer.
S: Aroma of mild caramel malt with hints of fruity ale yeast, stewed leaves, vague grain and a twinge of spice. Bland.
T: Tastes of subdued caramel malt with a dry finish. Notes of mild toasted grain, ale yeast, stewed leaves and faint hay. Well-attenuated, followed by a restrained bitterness upon swallowing.
M: Mouthfeel is smooth, tingly and dry, with spritzy carbonation and a light, insubstantial body. Slightly astringent, accompanied by an aftertaste of mild stewed leaves, faint ale yeast and a hint of malt.
O: Meh - dull as ditchwater. Looks OKish, while the aroma and flavour are a timid blend of mild caramel malt, ale yeast and subtle stewed leaves. So-so body. Nothing technically wrong with it but insipid and devoid of character. Give it a miss.

Bottled sadly in clear glass
About as convincing as England's six nation run, some of those sleeve notes but really muted ending up with a dull bitter with no real aroma

21th Feb 2012: Hand pulled pint in ‘The Raven’ Wellington, Shropshire.
Good looking brew: clear amber/copper body the head a thick cream coloured affair.
Not a lot going on in the nose: sweet, candy fruits but nothing beery.
Bland and boring: malted biscuits with not much else in the taste.
A little on the thin side too, the looks gave the impression of a rich, deep flavoured brew, this was misleading to say the least.
