Can from Sainsbury's Supermarket, Blackley. Copper-amber with a thick frothy-bubbly head. It's honey is dominant in both aroma and taste, but this is quite a hoppy ale too and this is evident enough also. Has a certain grittiness about it.

Bottle split at the 'fuck me it's Kenny; tasting, thanks to Fergus - Watford, 25/06/21. Clear golden amber with a decent light egg shell white head. Nose is grassy, citric peel, toasted grains, straw. Taste comprises toasted malts, bitter orange, grassy bite, light herb, toasted grains. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close spiked with grassy hop bitterness. Passable offering ... more a glorified ESB with a touch more hops than the norm.

Bottle from local Sainsburys. Aroma is mainly honey with some biscuits and a hint of hops. Pours a reddish orange with a small cream head and some lacing. Honey and hops again combining in the mouth with metallic overtones and traces of orange and ginger. Texture is creamy and the honey makes it a bit cloying. Finish is quite bitter and a bit gassy. A pretty decent old school IPA.
