Bottle pours a clear yellow ale with a slim head. Aroma is hoppy, light floweriness. Taste is a pleasant balance of light hops and bitterness in the finish. A straightforward light ale, session ale if you will; a quite acceptable refreshing ale I thought..

Bottle, from Sainsburys Scunthorpe. Gold, thin but lasting white head and moderate condition. Gentle fruit and yeast in the nose, quite bitter in the mouth with hops dominating a muted fruity bubblegum yeastiness, finish is moderately dry and a mixture of hop and yeast bitterness.

500ml bottle. Pours light gold with a medium head. Aroma is sweet honey and straw. Taste has light straw and biscuit. Quite drinkable.

In Spainsbury’s beer-off. Pale gold with a honeycombed white head. Dishcloth lime, elderflower, lychee nose; pleasant taste with herbal, grassy hop notes, shaves of lime and tangerine, flowers. Vanilla/dough/Monster Munch linger with a crisp, ringing citrus bitterness to back it. Discreet honey. Worth drinking again.

Pours a clear, straw-colour and has a faint sweet aroma which contrasts nicely with the crisp, bitter taste of the beer. Not anything special but refreshing.

bottle at home ... golden yellow ... small white head ... soft lemon hop nose ... light fizz ... soft lemon ... barest metalic ... ok but thats it

Bottle courtesy of mr_h. Yellow colour, reasonable head. Tropical fruit aroma. Resin, biscuit, cereal & citrus fruit flavour. Bitter aftertaste. A really good blonde beer.

500ml bottle from Sainsbury’s, Prestwick - pale golden yellow, thin white head, fruity citrus hop aroma, honey notes, high carbonation, fruity, hint of spice, dry clean finish

Bottle. Golden with a thin white foam. Aromas are lemon marmalade with apricot and base biscuit. Locket lozenges with a light woodiness. Flavours are sweet and jammy with mixed tropical fruit and bitter lemon. Clean and grassy with a dry lightly bitter finish. Pretty good.

Bottle as part of the Sainsbury’s beer festival. Golden with a slight white head and plenty of carbonation. Light, grassy hop aroma with some sweetish malts. Easy drinking, with some underlying sweetness, solid malts and softly bitter finish. Ok.
