500 ml bottle, from Tesco Express, Belfast. ABV is 5%. Deep golden to amber colour, moderate white head. Meaty aroma, notes of broth - weird. Bland and boring dry flavour - weak malts, and no sign of the Mosaic and Cascade hops. What a sick joke!

500ml bottle. Clear amber colour with a big frothy off-white head. Aroma: some spicy rye and pepper notes, hint of citrus fruits. Taste: same as the aroma, some spicy rye and peppery notes, a little citrus bitterness to finish. Curious why Guinness bother to list the hops used when the beer has very little hop presence. Light-medium body, average carbonation. Overall inoffensive, average, disappointing from such a major brewery though - a company as big as Guinness should be able to do much much better than this.

12 ounce bottle from Total Wine Brookfield. Hazy orange, extremely fine particulate matter, medium frothy tan head, decent retention. Aroma of rye, lemon, pepper. The taste is rye, grapefruit, lime. Medium bodied, juicy. Solid.

Bottle pour into shaker pint glass from Cigarette City. Appearance is hazy (fine dark particulates noted) light brown/dark orange with negligible sparkle, finger-width foamy off-white head with poor retention and trace lacing. Aroma is toasted grains, rye spiciness, earthy hops. Taste is as aroma. Palate is light bodied with foamy texture, average carbonation and sweet grain over bitter finish. Overall, not getting the citrusy grapefruit quality. Pretty plain but easy drinking.

Okay. Like the mosaic flavours and fruity taste in the finish. Lacks body and more malt flavours though. Not bad but could be improved a lot.

Bottle from the tescay online delivery. Free because of shoogling and the cap came loose. Pours clear golden with a thin white head. Aromas of light spice and dried fruit. Taste is light citrus. Thin finish.
