330ml bottle: BB 11th January 2024. Poured into my IPA tasting glass at home on 11th August 2023, 5th beer in a mini-tasting with myself. Slight haze to the golden/amber body, large white head which arrived with a gush. Hoppy nose and taste, it's fairly bitter too, piney/earthy hops with a light fruity trace below the bitterness. Someone forgot the put the malts in, or they have changed the recipe because there is no caramel or malty sweetness in my glass, others noted the malts in earlier reviews.

Very active foamy white head left a froth on an unclear amber coloured body. Bitter aroma. Medium bodied, sharp & cloying. Bitterly hopped, biscuit, citrus & grapefruit tastes with a long tangy finish. That's decent.

#sxshare Guys give up. Infected. Blue cheese aroma. Sweaty socks. DMS. Gross.

Bottle. Real Ale Shop, Branthill, Norfolk. Hazy, pale amber. (There must only be these and Poppyland that put cloudy beers out in Norfolk?). Nose has toffee malts. Cooked pineapple. Some apricot. Taste has a little jammy sweetness, turning rindy, oily citrus bitter. Medium body. Soft carbonation. Punchy bitterness to finish. Not quite the same league as their 4.2 pale, but certainly very drinkable.
