Pint at the gingerman, darker orange beer, small head. Aroma is citrus, malt, hops, fruit. Taste is the same, fruity, citrus, hops. Not bad

Pours a clear golden amber colour with a small thin head that quickly disappeared. Aroma is mild, orange marmalade and malts, some light floral notes. Quite sweet, orange marmalade, a little caramel and more sweet. A light orange peel bitterness but not alot of hops and what there is plays second fiddle to the sweet orange flavours.

Can from O’Brien’s, Athlone [080117]
Dark amber, clear, white head
Aroma of caramel malts, soft fruits, hint of toffee, caramelised orange
Taste of caramel, light toffee, caramelised orange, just as aroma, quite malty, not that hoppy
Palate - Soft carb, medium body, soft sweet. Finish of soft toffee, soft bitter linger
Overall - Should be in a 500ml bottle/can. More caramel malt than usual for a pale ale. It’s OK.
