2.8 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 12/20
Very gentle floral aroma. Taste is light to the point of bland. Very gentle hops giving a herbal note, with a pleasing bitterness to finish. Slightly too carbonated for my tastes.
It’s not a bad beer but too middle of the road for me. Perhaps a good choice for the drinker who prefers the classic English ipa over the more extreme ipa currently in fashion

well hopped nose with some spice, a hint of pine, and a little bit of citrus. Pours a pleasant gold with a quickly disappearing head. Flavour is dry and tasty with some sweet bubblegum, some clove, a bit of grapefruit and some burnt orange peel. Surprisingly good for a supermarket beer.

Clear honey gold with a short lived head. Aroma is thin citrus. Flavour is a dry bitter, not much else

3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
Bottle, from M&S, Hull. Gold, thin shortlived white head and gentle condition. Pleasant citrusy nose with hints of fruity bubblegum and elderflower, hops and a gentle sweet graininess. Full bodied in the mouth with a very pleasant balance of sweet grainy malt and citrusy resinous hop bitterness, again with an underlying fruity elderflower note, soft in the finish with gentle hop resin bitterness lingering.
