0,33 l bottle from Lidl as APA Patriot. Murky amber in the glass with foamy a nearly two finger white head. Floweresque honey smell. Taste starts hopy malty, some floral sweetness with citrus and black tea. Thins a littel out to the end but a ice refreshing one.

Tasted as Patriot APA Huge, fluffy, lightly yellowish head, whipped eggwhite-like and some lace over lightly carbonated clear copper beer. Floral hops upon opening but soon overwhelmed by a truckload of caramel. Almonds, marzipan, amandine and oxydation. Metallic bitterness initially, making way for bitter almonds, perfumey, but always with a persistent wry, acorn-like bitter. Light body. Aftertaste is watery, once the main flavours have faded away. Rather low carbonation. The blurb calls it "balanced and complex". Hitting the nail on the head with exactly what it isn't. Thanks to Stef!

Bottle, 0.33l. Aroma of citrus, tropical fruit, honey and biscuit. Pours cloudy amber color with medium sized soapy white head and sparkling appearance. Taste starts medium sweet biscuity and floral, following is grassy, fruity and honeyish, mouthfeel is smooth, while finish is pretty bitter. Medium body, oily texture and average carbonation in palate. Very promising aroma, even taste’s not so bad, but there is some strange astringency with metallic notes that just don’t work together with other characteristics...

As Patriot from Lidl. Pours somewhat hazy amber, topped with medium sized, just slightly offwhite head, not really lasting. Very pleasat fruity aroma, ripe peaches, resin and some biscuity notes. Moderate bitterness, piney character. Lasting aftertaste. Medium light body. Not bad, especially with thst price.

Bottled 330ml. -from local Lidl as Patriot. Darker golden coloured, medium sized white head, mild citrusy herbal nose. Sweetish malty, light citrusy and herbal with rather strong bitter finish. Better than other two I've rated but not much.

Bottle, 0.33l. From local Lidl, as Lidl Patriot. Cloudy copper pour, one finger frothy off-white head. Pretty good retention and lacing. Nice on the nose, clean and fresh, herbal grassy character with subtle fruity touch. Thin body, soft to medium carbonation. Light mouthfeel, average texture. Mildly bitter taste with sweet notes coming out towards the finish. Aroma of herbs, grassy hops. Light citrus notes, touch of orange peel. Malty sweet background. Short to medium finish, mildly bitter and slightly dry. Overall, surprisingly decent thirst quencher. Very good value for money.
