Yeah, this is a diappointing example of the style, way too dumbed down, I prefer the Holdgate ESB as far as locally made "bitters" go
I tried a six pack with my Dad and brother in law over the weekend. As said by others, it was a little dumbed down to the lager drinker market. Not bad when warmed up (I left it in the car for an hour and a bit before drinking) and decarbonated (poured half glasses and swirled continuously for a few mins). Very mild interpretation of the style. No yeast character at all, probably brewed with lager yeast and lagered before filtering, pasteurising, etc. Definitely a little malt flavour and a trace of EKG. Not bad but not brewed for us.
According to the brewer it is indeed brewed with an ale yeast at ale temperatures. I presume it's something akin to Wyeast 1056 at the very low end of its range.

One day Boags marketers noticed that micro-brewery and 'craft' beer was getting more popular, so they decide to create a high profit/low cost beer to tap into this market.
