Clear pale gold with a frothy white head and a soft light biscuit malt aroma with hints of mellow citrus fruit. Light bodied and smooth, with and underlying light malt flavour and mellow bitterness, after a sharp citrusy kick, and a dry finish

Bottle from Morrisons. Pours a clear light golden colour with a medium sized throthy white head. Aromas of citrus fruits, hints of tropical and some floral. Taste has more citrus, floral and peppery spice with some pithy bitterness on the finish. Medium to full body, average carbonation and very smooth oily mouthfeel. Nice fresh summery beer.

500ml bottle. Light gold, very small head with some retention. Hoppy aroma with some malts. Taste has an initial hoppy, citrus, light malts and then there is almost a void before there is a building bitterness in the finish which is interesting for a blonde ale and must be where the 'inferno' come from. Body is light and there is a moderate carbonation. I guess before the latest craft beer explosion this was seen as very hoppy and modern. Now its almost traditional and its probably not that old a beer! Its a decent beer overall.

(Bottle) Clear pale golden with decent white head. Lovely aroma of lemon with floral notes. Medium body with soft carbonation. Nice lemony start, very little sweetness and some peppery notes develop leading to a reasonable hoppy bitter finish. Nice easy drinking beer.
