Bottle on 2nd September 2020 from Co-Op, Kentish Town. Pours clear copper with what little foam develops soon decaying to almost zero. Caramel malt aroma with grassy, herby hops. Sweet, nutty maltiness in-mouth with grassy, leafy hoppiness. The nutty malt dominates the finish with hops taking a backseat. A zingy mouthfeel and medium body afford easy drinking.
Bottle from Beers Of Europe.
Appearance - golden amber with a big fluffy off-white head.
Nose - caramel, brown bread, marmalade.
Taste - light orange, but mainly caramel and biscuit.
Palate - close to medium bodied, a touch sweeter than preferable.
Overall - ok.

Aroma : Medium toasted sweet caramel/bready malt, a little melon fruitiness, with a grassy/strawy note. Taste : As aroma. Thin-medium body. Moderately bitter throughout. O.K. but pretty standard & ordinary
Light amber-brown with a generous off-white foam and a leafy hoppy nose. The typical Sheps fruity yeast adds a tang, and there's a dry hoppy bitterness. Crisp and spicy.

A very bland beer. Hops, caramel malt and a light spicy finish. Not sure what I expected, but it is like a government manifesto, promise you the world in the text and deliver next to nothing.
Bottle from Sainsburys. Medium golden, small foamy head. Aroma is malty and grainy, some hoppy notes evident. Mild flavor, caramel malts and light bittering hops. Pretty smooth too.

Easy drinkable and refreshing lager. I like beer witch have a bit bitter. Aftertaste are fine bitterness becoming to caramel sweetness and lots of banana bread and some dried fruits.
Caramel notes, light touch of hops and decent malty undertones. Rounded easy to drink ale.

Frisk i smagen, har en dejlig smag af noget lyd frudt, måske lettere blomsteragtig
Bottle. Foggy amber colour. Medium-sized off- white head. Aroma: biscuit, caramel, floral hops, minor esters. Light to medium body. Bittersweet taste. Medium dry. Caramel. Light floral bitterness. OK bitter.
One of the least favorite shepheard neame beers i have had. Too lagery band on the bad side of it.
Pours an amber gold colour. Some caramel on the taste with that typical Shepherd Neame hop profile
50 cl clear bottle. Labeled "Faversham Steam Brewery". Clear, dark golden amber, thin head, richly carbonated. Aromas of barley, caramel and toffee. Mouthfeel is sharp and refreshing, well carbonated. Tastes like metal in an unpleasant way. Disappointing ale, sorry.
Flaska bishops Örebro. Gyllengul vätska. Brödig doft med lite örter och färsk hö. Krämig och lite avslagen smak med lite smörkola och vanilj.
Enjoyed: Poured from a bottle into a English pint.
Appearance: Not so clear copper colour, slightly blurry, with medium thick head.
Aroma: Gentle aroma of malt, citrus, floral
Palate: Light body, watery; gentle carbonation.
Taste: Gentle hops, herbal; light bitter/citrus aftertaste.
Overall impression: Quite good and enjoyable.
Bottiglia. Il gusto al naso riferisce di frutta, agrumi e luppolo. L’intensità olfattiva è elevata e la persistenza olfattiva è sufficiente. Il cappello di schiuma ha una discreta resistenza. La grandezza delle bollicine è media. La consistenza del liquido è limpida, dove si vedono salire poche bollicine medio-fini. Il colore è ambrato. Il corpo è rotondo. L’amaro è moderato. L’intensità gustativa è normale e la persistenza gustativa è sufficiente, gassata sulla lingua. Le sensazioni boccali finali sono di facile beva. Il finale è semplice. Il retrogusto è di media intensità.
