Bottle from the local Tossco, backlog catch up entering scope, 26/04/15. Clear reddish amber with a decent bieg cap that retains well. Nose is caramel, straw, light red berry, biscuit, hint of perfume. Taste comprises caramel, light floral streak, bubblegum, candied fruit peel, biscuit. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close with light bitterness. Ok amber, clean and to the point.

Bottle thanks to allmyvinyl. Appearance - deep chestnut with red chinks. A nice fluffy head. Great! Nose - red fruits and light biscuits. Taste - more red fruits and biscuits, with a little caramel in the mix. Palate - close to medium bodied with a creamy texture and a balanced dry finish. Overall - yes, tasty!

500ml bottle at home on 4th April 2015: poured into a UK pint sleeve. Red hue to the clear body: the head a light beige, deep and lasting. Red berries in the nose, found in the flavours also, malty yet bitter, hoppy yet smooth and semi-sweet: nice blend of tastes. It worked for me: the first decent beer I’ve had from Sharp’s since they were ’Coor’ed’.

Bottle from my mate Wiggy...probably from Tescos. Deep reddish-brown pour with a white head. Orchard fruit and light smoke aroma. Red apple and smoky malt flavour. Not bad.

5.9/10 Appearance 6 Aroma 6 Flavor 6 Texture 6 Overall 5.5
Bottle from Tesco Enniskillen [190115]
Ruby brown, clear, frothy beige head, some lacing
Aroma intially of soft citrus, dab of grapefruit, hint of mango but this dissipated leaving simple caramel malts
Taste of caramel, not getting the fruits from the aroma, just some fruitiness from the malts, slight minerals and yeast, brown malts knock out soft hops. Seems under flavoured for the 4.8% abv.
Palate - Soft carb, medium, light sweet. Finish of soft light sweet malts. Finish - some toffee comes through, bitter toasted malts.
Overall - Rather dull. Typical supermarket fare.
