Bottled. A golden beer with a whitey head. The aroma is sweet malty with light notes of citrus, while the flavor is sweet malty with medium notes of citrus, leading to a dry and slightly bitter finish, where strong notes of lemon lingers.

Bottle. Frothy white good mostly deminishing head. Yellow colour. Powerfull rather artificial orange aroma and flavor. Short finish. Watery palate. Refreshing but not very beer-like.

Pale yellow with a disappearing white head. Lemon soda aroma. Fizzy orange juice flavour. If you prefer Schweppes over beer, this is for you. But why would you want a beer then?

Picked this up in Tesco, Aylesbury. Well what can I say other than it has turned an already iffy lager into an iffier lager with added strange fruitiness. There may be 100% natural fruit extracts in this as the blurb states but it still came across as having an artificial taste and aroma, you could taste the blood orange but it didn’t really enhance or improve anything at all. Sort of came across as being something marketed at those kids who are gradually being weaned off of alcopops and whilst they want something a little more mainstream this would fit the bill temporarily. Not my thing, and yet there are three other fruity flavours apparently.
