An okay session ipa. Not my favourite hop combination, but it’s mostly balanced at least. Malt & Hops Belarusia Minsk

Misty light amber ale with a moderate off-white head. Decent retention. Nose: biscuit malts, fruity esters, floral hop. Very light body. Soft carbonation. Taste: light sweet, medium bitter. Fruity, floral. Long hoppy ending. Drinkable enough.

Can with a nitro widget as if it were 1997. Nose is grain, faint floral . Taste is the weird dry, dusty nitro taste, malt, metalic, dishwater, soap, chemical, no hops at all. It's absolutely disgusting. I've managed less than 10 mouthfuls and had to pour away. The better reviews below seem to be from kegs or bottles, in the can I had it was horrific.

Can shared in Hackney - picked up at Waitrose. Pours totally clear gold with a tight, foamy white head. English yeast in the nose, doughy white bread, some white grape. Light to medium sweet flavour, more English yeast, hay, dough. Light bodied with fine to average carbonation. OK balance in the finish, vague citrus, more doughy white bread. So so.

Bottle watching City vs Peterborough, 27/01/18. Golden pour with a decent off white head. nose is pale malts, grains, lemon drizzle, straw. Taste comprises citric sherbets, light breads, toasted malts, orange peel, light floral tones. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close. Average golde but not bad for the price point.

Can from Tesco, Enniskillen [301017]
Amber, clear, dense white nitro head
Aroma - soft lemon, light nose, OK
Taste - soft citrus hops, light twiggy hops in there, dab of caramel, soft flavours, slightly metallic edge, easy
Palate - Very soft carb, medium loght body, smooth, light sweet pale malts. Finish - light creamy, soft bitter hops, light twigs, dab of citrus, more English hops in linger
Overall - Light IPA, more of a old fashioned English IPA with a dab of citrus hops added - nitro head is a bit odd. OK - easy drinking, not too bad.

Clear golden, white head. A bit of citrus hop but basically this is about as bland and middle of the road as IPAs get. It's not bad as such, just desperately inoffensive.
