500ml bottle. Poured a crystal clear golden colour with a short-lived frothy white head. The aroma is malt, light citrus fruits. The flavour is light bitter with a light, watery, light fruit, mineral, light hop bitter palate. Light bodied with average carbonation. Lacks body, flavour and bitterness.

Clear golden, bubbly white head. Smell is a touch of bitter op and a hefty whack of sweet, sickly fruit. Taste is a bit of lemony citrus, some hop and a touch of something bitter and not altogether pleasant that I can't place. Thin, watery, nothing especially to commend in the flavour. This just isn't great.

Bottle. Golden/orange pour with a white head. Nose of straw, bitter citrus, nuts. Bitter citrus and hop flavours. Light sweetness on the palate. Drinkable but lacks depth.

Clear blond appearance with quick fading head. Aroma and flavour have a weird mix of earthy, floral English hop and light tropical fruit. Very watery.

50cl bottle from B&M, Reading. A pale amber pour with a loose white head; biscuity malt aroma; soapy in the mouth, with a light bitterness and a flabby finish. OK to wash down a curry.

500ml bottle: BB 31st May 2018. Drank at home on 17th Aug 2017. Poured into a UK pint glass (sleeve) while preparing and cooking a veg curry. Not the greatest or most flavoursome beer on earth, but was fine in my hot and cluttered kitchen, just what I needed to keep me cool and focused on the mission. Pale amber/golden body, decent white crown. Nose had some biscuit like maltiness, taste similar, light hop bitterness with a mild fruity undertone complimented the malts.
