Bottle 500ml from Waitrose, Christchurch. A yeasty, slightly citrus aroma greeted me on opening this one. It pours a deep golden colour and just ever so slightly cloudy, with a good white head to it. It was quite lively on the palate, kind of like a fizzy sensation without being fizzy! The label states that it has a “refreshing bite” and I have to say that this is true.

Bottle conditioned. Gold to orange coloured with a slim white head. Sweet hoppy aroma with underlying caramel malts. Fruity hoppy taste with some honey. lemon and a short bitter finish. Good and drinkable.

Gold colour. No head slightly cloudy. Expected some sediment with it being bottle conditioned but thee was none. It had a light aroma of oranges and hops. Fizzy. Tasted of malt. Bitter.

Bottled. Yellowish golden colour, big fluffy white head, that settles into mediumsized foamy head in a few minutes. Aroma is soap, some fruity hops as well as mild grassyness. Flavour is flowery hops along with some grassyness. Aftertaste has some mild fruityness in it.
