Can that I think that I got from Baileys of Bromsgrove, Worcestershire consumed at Builth Wells, Powys in the company of Jude, Baz and Isobel Wednesday 30th May 2018 Pours hazy gold with a white head, fruity easy drinking APA with a nice citrus twist. Like this but dinner being served which has curtailed my rating a tad. A7 A4 T7 P4 Ov13 3.5

440ml can. Pours a hazed golden amber, frothy off-white head. Aroma is marmalade orange, grapefruit. Taste is sweet marmalade, orange resin, grapefruit, caramelised malt with a traditional India Pale Ale vibe. Robust and hoppy, sure, but defiantly old School. Nice artwork. May have to stick it somewhere.

440ml can. Hazy orange with a frothy off-white head. Aroma is sweet, fruity, caramel, mango, papaya, those sweets that have that so-called "banana" flavouring. Taste of sweet pulpy tropical fruits, pithy orange, mango, papaya, caramel, surprisingly strong bitter lingering finish. Medium body, soft carbonation. Nice but not one of their best, felt a little out of balance.

Can from Bottle Baron. Hazy amber body with a thin white head that fades. No visible carbonation. Faint lacing. Aroma of rusted metal and grain. Flavour of lemon, stewed tea and caramel. Thin to medium body with a slick texture. Light fizz. A bit drab.
