Bottle courtesy of Macca, cheers Macca. Consumed at home Saturday 28th July 2018 in the company of Mum and Keith after a day out in London. A sweet and fairly pedestrian beer, the aroma is unusual, not sure what it is but it has a bit of confectionery shop, fruit and even vegetables, it's certainly interesting if a little artificial. Rather drab, insipid and tastes of very little, fruity but not sure what fruit. I cannot see me finishing this. A6 A4 T4 P2 Ov8 2.4

Britisches Ale gab es eine Zeitlang als Pro-Bier-Box bei Hofer (der österreichischen Version von Aldi). Dieses ist mein erstes Bier aus dieser Box. Es ist ein blondes, leicht malziges, aber vor allem fruchtiges Ale, das sich mit den neu-modernen Summer-Ales gut messen könnte. Es mag keine Aromenbombe sein, aber die vorhandenen Aromen sind gut komponiert und machen das Bier zu einem überzeugenden Durstlöscher.

50 cl. bottle @ home, bought @ Lidl Culemborg. Clear golden with a thin white head. Faint grainy aroma. Sweet taste with a bit astringent note. Not fruity at all, although the label proclaims otherwise. Smooth mouthfeel but all in all sub par.

500ml bottle (4.2% ABV); BB 30th Jun 2018. Poured into a Black Sheep Brewery badged straight sleeve (UK Pint), at home on 16th Feb 2018. Got to admit I only bought this because I noticed the cask version had it's own entry on RateBeer and this was an easy and cheap extra 'tick' for me. Light golden body, slight haze, the head a thin white affair, which soon turned into a wisp and collar. The nose is like a mixed fruit bowl sprinkled with caster sugar, taste not so sweet but still fruity in nature. Light bitterness below the malty base, overall better than I expected for a fairly cheap supermarket beer.
