1.8 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 1/5 OVERALL 7/20
A new beer from Du Bocq brewery which has mandarin, lemon and lime flavourings.
This surely cant be classed as a beer, as it tastes and feels like sparkling water mixed with some squash. It is low on alcohol but doesn’t feel even vaguely alcoholic. It is marketed as refreshing on hot days, and was drunk on a hot day, and to be fair didnt taste revolting like some fruit beers. The appearance was carbonated amber, with little to no head, and it tastes exactly as its advertised - citrus piffle

1.9 AROMA 2/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 7/20
Bottle. Hazy peach colour with a huge peach/white head. Head looks good; body not so Bo Derek. Orangey aroma with malt and something artificial going in there. Brewed by Mattel, you say? That would explain it. Certainly doesn’t go well with my nose. Fresh and orangey flavour with lots of sweetness, and I actually think the flavour is pleasant and the best thing about this rather peculiar beer.

2.3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 7/20
Bottle, bought @ Beer Planet, Brussels.
Hazy pale yellow with a lovely, staying, frothy, white head. Looks good. Aroma has sharp lemon, oranges, light candy-like sweetness to it. High carbonation, thin and watery with some lime-ish dryness. Flavour is sharp citric, oranges, grapefruit. A weird balance between candy sweet and sharp tart citrus. Generally just weird.

Like grape-juice. Light yellow coloured and unclear. Has a white head, mostly lasting. Clear aroma of citrus-fruits, mostly grape, light mango too perhaps, and lime. Flavor is heavy sweet, light astringent too. Lively carbonation.

White head, yellow body. Smell is malty with hints of fruits. Taste is (too) sweet mandarin. Don’t like it, too artificial.
