Pours a light gold with a thin white head.
A slight yeast aroma with some citrus in the back ground.
Medium mouth feel.
Yeast and citrus with a touch of nuttiness make up the flavors from start to finish.
Just a little bit of complexity but it's just this side of being another Euro Lager. Shame.

Fullers London Pride

Pleasant smoky aroma. Have never come across a smell like that in an ale. Flowery with a bit of citrus flavor. Nice clean bitter after taste. Another great blend of hops and malt, (or bitter and sweet). All in all another great beer, not quite as good a blend as the Fullers ESB.
This is what Fuller's has to say about this beer:
"London Pride is a smooth and astonishingly complex beer, which has a distinctive malty base complemented by a rich balance of well developed hop flavours from the target, challenger and northdown varieties in the brew. At 4.1% a.b.v in cask (4.7% a.b.v in bottles)London Pride is an ideal session-strength premium ale."
