17th July 2018, 500ml bottle at my brothers place in Devon while cooking the evening meal. Light golden body, white affair on top. Mild malty aroma and flavour base, floral and citrus esters in the nose, they also show in the taste. Decent enough blend, but lacks 'oomph' and depth.

Bottle from Asda, Bideford. Golden with no head. Hoppy in the main with an underlying floralness in both aroma and taste.

50cl bottle from Tesco, Camberley. A hazy pale amber pour with a thin white head; floral and citrus aroma; crisp flinty taste with some citrus fruit and a chalky body; and a lingering grassy bitterness to finish. Quite pleasant.
