(Can) Pours clear golden amber with big off-white head. Lovely aroma. Stone fruit to the fore, yeasty, peppery note and candy hints. Light body with full carbonation. Great taste. There’s peppery spice through the palate, that develops into a long pleasant moderately bitter finish. There’s fruit, but less than the aroma. Stone fruit and banana notes. There’s a yeasty taste in the mid palate. Very good.

Can. Amber with an off white head that never quite disappears. Aroma of nectarines, caramel, spices, bracken. Light bodied, perhaps lacks a little of the creaminess (dare I say, nitro) of the real thing. Fruity but already pretty dry with a properly bitter and only slightly bretty brackeny punch at the end. Not at all disappointed, just wanted to try one fresh.
