500 ml bottle. Clear amber body with a fine off-white head. Aroma is clean malty with some fruit. Flavor is light malty, rather refreshing, some fruitiness and a mild hoppy finish. OK to be this low in alcohol, otherwise a bit boring after one glass.

Bottle that I picked up in Tesco, Aylesbury 23-03-09 consumed 29-03-09 Poured amber with slightly off white head. Reasonable hoppy bite from the off, but then it seems to slip into mediocrity. There is a decent bitter in here Iām sure but Iām struggling to find anything more than an average light fruity offering. Its just ok really. A5 A3 F5 P3 OV12 2.8

500ml bottle picked up at Centra in Oslo. Inviting golden brown body colour. Fading, white head leaving a few patches on the surface. Moderate aroma of fruitlike malts. Starts with a prominent taste of tart, late oranges and continues with a weaker touch of caramel malts. Discreet bitter backdrop. Easy going and light bodied, but very refreshing [hotel room in Oslo, 19.11.2008].

Biggish offwhite shiny head does not last. Amber body. Malty roasty perfumy aroma with notes of caramel and floral hops. Dry-sweet wooden malty tea taste with roasty floral hop notes. Mid- to thin body. Dry roasty wooden aftertaste with faint citric metallic notes. Very nice. Good session beer. (0.5l bottle, Centra, Oslo.)

500 ml bottle, bought in Norway. A new beer from Adnams, developed from their long gone Champion Pale Ale. Amber colour, big off-white head. Biscuits, some malts and a moderate fruitiness in the aroma. The flavour has fruity hops on a decent malty base, and the mouthfeel is very good for a 3.4% beer.
