Hazy amber with a white head, not very pretty. Caramel malt aroma, sweet and tempting. Taste has citrus, malt and cold tea. Mid bitter finish. Pretty good for an own brand!

Bottle. Malt spice, honeyed aromea. Pours a luminiscent orange cloudty beer. Oranges, spices, tangy and hops. Malty and sweet in the finish. Really nice.

An attractive beer deep amber colour with a fairly thick white head. Nice fruity aroma and hints of spice too. Good robust palate pleasant malty character. Reasonable finish.

A ruby/amber looking one with a nice creamy coffee coloured head. Caramelised sugar and bready smell with a floral perfume smell too, slightly spicey, slightly funky/yeast too, armpit hops if you like, probably the amarillo because it has a grapefruit quality too. Medium to high bitter citrusy hops on the palate, cakey, long and fairly dry,

Bottle. Golden brown with a small head. Aromas are toffee malts with jaffa cake orangey bits. Dry and resinous. Flavours are caramel malts with bitter lemon. Dry and hoppy with citrus and sweet toffee on the finish. A well bottled bitter.
