500ml bottle from Tesco. Slightly reddish tinge. Nice hop flavours - amarillo hops are always very tasty. Malt is clean and pleasant with a gentle toffee sweetness, though is mainly a clean, fresh base for the aromatic hops. This is a lovely beer. If the malts pulled more, this would be splendid.

Bottle. Hazy tawny amber. Quite malty nose. Toffee with a little fruitiness and floral hops. Not bad for supermarket beer.

I didn’t really like this that much, found it a bit dirty tasting. Very malty and sweet.

This reddish brown beer has a citrus and floral aroma and a slightly sour flavour with notes of caramel and orange.
