A nice, bitter amber beer, with a fruity flavour. Nothing exceptional, but not half bad.

Super gassy, very much like a lager, except for the taste.

Its amber in colour and has a really complex flavour with maltiness, and you can definately taste the effect that ageing in the oak bourbon casks has had on it.

Its not the smoothest from a bottle, and I would love to try it on draught.

This is one of my go-to’s. . . when you walk into a chain pub, and this is the only real beer they sell. . . I’m all over it.

Its really tasty, distinctive, malty and smooth (when on tap), it can be a bit gassy from a bottle.

Only negative on this one. . . more than one pint and I get struck with heartburn.

Would never stop me drinking it however!

An amber coloured, relatively weak tasting, smooth beer. Theres not much to it, but its stronger than it tastes. Claims to be Londons beer. . . says a lot. Its perfect for a Southern softy.

Dont get me wrong, it has its place, and its certainly not a bad pint, but its just lacking in most things, strength, flavour etc.

Malty, with a distinctive taste, a staple in Wetherspoons pubs as they usually have this on regardless of any other dross that may be available.

A nice supping beer.

Beautiful beer. Strong, and very tasty. Its quite malty and has a distinctive taste, not unlike its younger, more immature sibling Old Speckled Hen, its a matured, more established flavoured beer.

Right, this abortion is the worst honey infused beer I have tried. Its essentially lager with a mildly honey undertone. It brands itself as a Brown ale. . . Its not. . . Avoid.

This is one of my go-to beers.

its strong, dark amber in colour, very tasty and just a generally really nice pint. Nothing particularly special about it, but its a staple 😉
