Bottle. Clear golden body with a thin white head that fades. Faint lacing. Aroma of grain, grass and earthy hops. Flavour of grass, bitter hops and pear. Thin body with an oily mouthfeel. Soft fizz. Tastes like a dry-hopped Lager.

Bottle from Marks and Spencer, Enniskillen [310815]
Golden, clear, medium white head that dissipates
Aroma of soft zest, lemon, light sweet citrus, touch of orange
Taste of soft sweet peach, light sweet fruity pale malts, soft lemon, very soft hops, soft tinned fruit, quite fruity.
Palate - Soft carb, light body, soft sweet. Finish of soft sweet fruits.
Overall - A bit weak on flavour, but whatโs there is decent. Needs a bit of oomph. Probably would work better on cask.

Bottle at home in London - sourced from the M&S in the Whiteleys on Queensway. Pours crystal clear yellow-gold with a frothy white head that more or less vanishes in a rush. Dry and crispy biscuits in the aroma, with accents of citrus and white grape. Medium sweet flavor with more white grape notes, some pale bready malts, ripe tangerine, pear, slight bitter hay. Light bodied with fine to average carbonation. Finishes quite sweet without enough bitterness to balance it out. Drinkable stuff.

50cl bottle from M&S Camberley. A clear amber pour with a fast fading white head and low carbonation; blackcurranty aroma; crisp fruity taste with a zingy bitterness; and a caramel finish. Nothing particualrly stands out, but itโs a well made light bitter.

Bottle from M&S Moorgate. Clear gold lasting white head. Aroma of some citrus and blackcurrants. Very drinkable. Well balanced but interesting hop blend gives it a good fruity blend that is unusual. Love a pale ale.
