Nov 21, 2005 Updated: Apr 20, 2007Very nice Indeed, bought from local Asda. Golden amber colour . Fizzy looking at first, and head fades. Not too dry but nice and hoppy,mmmm biscuits and tofee with a lovely full malty mouthfeel. Fruits sparkle against roof of mouth, bitter hop come to the fore when swallowed, then a late kick back of the citrus fruits shimmer and fade on the tongue.very drinkable.Really moreish.

Aroma is vaguely fruity with slight spice and tinge alcohol. It must be said the aroma is pretty damn good. Appearance is nothing more than standard. Flavour is fruity with slight citrus and hops but just a little too sweet. Nice clean hoppy finish.
Quite surprised by the quality of this one over all.

Oct 30, 2005 (500 ml bottle: Obtained in trade with radiomgb, thanks Jeff!) This beer pours medium gold in color, only slightly hazy, covered by quite a large, foamy head. It’s almost white in color, and rises to nearly two inches in height, but very slowly recedes to a quarter inch tall, creamy and bubbly layer, leaving large swaths of dense lacing on the glass. The nose is sweet, grainy, fruity and grassy, with a moderate presence of smoke in there too. Initially, the flavor is mildly sweet and slightly bready, with mild bitterness, but wow, I love the unobstructed and gregarious smokiness in the finish. Body is light-medium and carbonation is fairly gentle. Quite a treat, especially for those that like smoky beers.

Oct 3, 2005 Bottled. Pale golden colour with soft white head. Full hoppy aroma, juicy and more’ish. Lovely hoppy flavour supported by a volumous texture and body. The whole package delivers a beer that you enjoy more with each sip. More than worth a try.

Oct 2, 2005 An orange beer with an orange head. The aroma is sweet hoppy with OK notes of caramel. The flavor is sweet yet slightly acidic - I think it is from the hops, since it is rather hoppy combined with some notes of caramel.
