440ml can. Gluten Free. Orangey gold amber colour, foamy off-white head and aroma of malt, bready, yeasty, marzipan hint. Taste is malty, bready, with orangey citric, marmalade, with fruity yeasty notes, and some tangy bitterness. Medium bodied, soft carbonation, drying boozy bitter finish. Nicely drinkable.

On tap at Milton Tooms, Malton from brewery stall (followed by canned version) - Orange body, thin white top. Nose is yeast forward, sweet breadiness and malty. Taste is sweet, banana, bread again, quite syrupy and boozy. Real quality effort, and dangerous.

Can. Light haze on this deepish orange beer, a patchy cream colour head. Nose of sweet malts and sweet esters. Palate starts smooth and slightly viscous but back end brings good fine nibbly carbonation. Smooth malts, silky, some creamy sweetness and some caramel sweetness. Generic fruits, somewhat ripe. Fair few esters follow the nose along with something slightly gluey -champagne like. Finishes crisp and with a good dose alcohol warmth coming through. Interesting concept but the delivery feels a little clunky. Didn't want to drink that much of it.

Can from Hydrology. Pours clear golden with a thick white head. Aromas of oranges, heavy spice esters, rye almost, brown bread. Taste is fruity, more orange and bread, marmalade. Warming boozy finish.
