Tried this beer by half-pint at my London EastEnd local and the beer was one of the guest ales there.

Appearance: it pours "oo-long tea" to strawed colour; somehow not very clear and has almost no bubbles and no beer head at all!
Smell: it has light-perfumy, slightly malty-sweet nose, not too bad.
Taste: against its very limited carbonation, I was surprised to find the beer a bit sharp in mouth... mixed with a bit tart palate and rather thin body.
Aftertaste: gradually the nice, subtle Golding hoppy bitterness comes through, very balanced and smooth in the end...
Drinkability: it's an average bitter, and if I had tried it two days earlier in the same place, it should have had tasted much much better due to freshness, I reckon.
