Bottle from Asda. Amber in colour, with a thin, white, head. Aroma of tangerines, hay, hedgerow hops and a suggestion of pine. Flavour had some crisp, sweetish, malts, more fruits and a prickly, dryish, finish. A good bottled beer.

(Bottle) Clear amber with tiny white head. Aroma is hoppy but seems more English hops that the piney, tangy hops I expect in an APA. Medium body with very nice carbonation. Good taste - nice balance of toffee malt and hoppy bitterness and there are some citrus notes. Good beer but doesnβt match my expectation of an APA.

Bottle from my parents. Hazy aroma - some grass, some resin and latterly some citrus. Copper gold. Bubbly white head soon retreats to the rim. Light bitter which gains a tad. Quinine. Herbs. Some veg. Light-medium bodied. Thin but slick. Fizzy carbonation. Long dry finish. I was expecting this to be more along the lines of an ESB but it's an OK IPA (or APA as the style suggests).
