3.8 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
Pours amber bit like a decent lager. Aroma of orange, marmalade, hay, light spice. Taste is well balanced with a slight tart, spiced orange finish due to the citrus. Easy to drink with gentle carbonation and nice mouthfeel. Orange becomes more prevelant as you get down the glass. A real bargain at only £1 for a 500ml bottle in Morrisons at the moment.

500ml bottle in a shaker. Pours golden with a lacy, off-white head. Aroma of pale malts with a decent amount of bitter hops. Flavor about the same. Average to light texture. Not bad for the style and alcohol content.

Bottled, 500ml from Morrisons, Banbury. Gold with white head. Malty, light beer, quite fruity, lemony in character, almost lager like, but reasonably sharp and fresh. Not bad really.
3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20
From the 500 ml. bottle with an expiration date of Dec 2012. It pours golden yellow with a moderate, short-lived head and a tad on the cloudy side. Aromas of malts, yeast, and a little citrus. The body is moderate with a smooth creaminess. The taste tends to come off as much more bitter than the aroma leads one to believe.

Blah. Very bland. Theres floaty things in my beer. Looks like someone puked in it before it was sealed. Golden pour, lack there of aroma and flavor.

3.1 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Bottle from Morrison’s. Rich golden amber colour, good head. Resin oat aroma & flavour. Somewhere between a bitter & golden ale.
3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
Pizzeria Paradiso, Alexandria cask 12oz ($9): Pours a hazy yellow with a white head. Aroma is lemony with a nice amount of malts and a bit of hops. Taste is bready, but has a good heaping pile of lemon all over it. Very easy drinking because of the cask nature of it. Nice mouthfeel. This was a simple, but still excellent ale.
1.5 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 3/20
500ml Bottle (£1 from Morissons):
Light and fruity smelling with some nice citrus notes and grassy notes. There is a dry biscuit and malts smell too along with a hint of grain. Plenty of hops for the style.
Light golden yellow that almost borders on straw with a thumb sized, bubbly white head and average retention.
Grassy hops and hints of citrus that was present in the smell. There was a little to much grain in the taste upfront followed by a fruity hop taste. The finish is quite a dry one.
Light bodied, perhaps a little watery but not overly thin. There is good carbonation and a dry bitterness to round the drink off with.
An average session ale here and not too different for numerous others out there. It was drinkable and the price certainly helped a little in my overall score, but only slightly. memorable one either.
