Keg at London Craft Beer Festival 2023. Honey, lemon, biscuits, pissy hops in the nose. Flavor is vanilla, caramel, honey. Reminds me of a young, bourbon barrel aged Speyside scotch. Kind of crazy.

Can from the Low Cost Beer online shop. Pours hazy golden orange with a thick white head and some floaters. Aromas of strong vanilla and honey. Taste is more of the same. Sweet, milky finish as promised I guess. Not my thing.

440ml can Sophie's Beer Store. Unclear amber appearance, frothy off-white head that's keen to disperse. Inviting sweet vanilla and lactose on the nose, modest honey. Taste has great integration of vanilla, lactose and honey with honey emerging more on the close. Wasn't sure which way this beer was going to go, but it has great balance of flavours, lovely ice cream character and a nice drinkability. Very good.

Can from Bottle Grove, Eastbourne. Aroma is a stonking sweetness, honeycomb shoved up your nostrils mixed with vanilla ice cream. Reminiscent somewhat of dark star Creme brulee. Bright orange colour. Taste is quite hopped with sweet. Bit slick. Overall not a repeat purchase because it's all a bit gimmicky but fun.

18/4/2020. Can from the Hand In Glove, Worcester. Pours slightly hazy pale amber with a just off-white head. Aroma has a nice subtle honey sweetness, is fruity, hoppy, toffee and malty, with honeycomb ice cream and a touch of chocolatey milk initially though that faded. Medium plus sweetness, light bitterness. Medium body, creamy texture, average to soft carbonation. Enjoyed this one, nicely done.

440ml can bought at UnBarred Brewery & Taproom in Brighton. Shared with Finn. Steady white head to a cloudy warm golden body, lacing rings down the glass. Moderate malt-fruity smell, honey sweet. Honeyed malt-fruity flavours, lactose backbone. Prolonged ending. Far enough. (Tromsø 19.02.2020).
