330ml can. Hazy light gold, brief fizzy head with no retention; not a great start. Aroma of grapefruit yeast bubblegum; distinctive but not great. Taste is like a sour grapefruit beer and not a very good one but I've had worse. I didn't find it a drain pour.

[33cl can from Home Bargains, Festival Park, Etruria.] A hazy amber pour with a fast fading white head; sour aroma of boiled grains; sour fruity taste, with apples and pears; and then an unpleasantly acidic finish.

No head on a orange body Fruit juice aroma. Thin, lifeless & limp. Grapefruit, orange & saccharin tastes. Ooh that's bad!

Hard to rate this, it’s very poor. Pours a slightly hazy amber with no head and a faint citrus aroma. Thin bodied, acidic and not very nice

Can. Home Bargains. Wow. This is shite. Looks like old piss in a bottle. Smells like boiled, sweaty vests. Taste is actually offensive. I rarely throw beer away, but I managed about 50ml of this.

Can from Home Bargains, Salford City Shopping Precinct. Very mildly hazed golden coloured ale with no head. Has a slightly sweetened nose with a bitter-sweet taste. It's a somewhat older style of IPA brewing, sort of making a change from the majority of canned ales being citrus based except it's not the finest of tastes, akin to flavourless chewing-gum.

330ml can: BB 13th Jun 2021. Drank at home on 30th Jan 2021. No head, dull orange colour, smell and taste are of over ripe and rotting fruit; is it supposed to taste like a sour? This is bad, a lesser man would pour it down the drain, but I'm made of stronger stuff and I am going to finish it!

Can from local Home Bargains. There’s a definite aroma of bubblegum here. Pours a golden yellow with small transient white heat. Low carbonation but a frothy texture in the mouth. Plenty of fruit in the taste, orange, tangerine, grapefruit, apple but none of it overwhelming. Pleasant enough, but not really hoppy enough to be classed as an IPA.
