Commercial Description:
Like all Cobra beers, Cobra Bite is brewed using the finest possible ingredients – in this case a unique blend of barley malt and yeast with rice and hops making them extra smooth and highly drinkable. After brewing, 100% natural fruit extracts are added to the beer before filtering. Cobra Bite is breaking new ground in the beer industry and establishing a completely new category of ‘fruit-flavoured premium lagers’. These are the only lagers in the UK market with 100% natural fruit extracts added after brewing, making them less challenging than traditional Belgian fruit beers and a refreshing and highly drinkable alternative to recent lagers brewed with citrus hops.

Bottle. Thanks to Enjoyit. Pours a pale yellow with a fast-disappearing white head. Aroma is blood orange and citrus, in a somewhat bad way. Really not my thing; cloying. Flavour is sweet citrus and orange. Pretty much like the aroma really, but slightly better, although the citrus is still a bit cloying. As it warms, it becomes very sweet and candy-like. Soft palate. 03-07-08.
