330ml bottle. Cloudy, amber colour with small, frothy to creamy, half-way lasting, minimally lacing, white head. Sweet-ish, minimally sugary, pale and caramel malty and minimally spicy, minimally fruity hoppy aroma, hints of caramel, vanilla, preserved yellow stone fruit. Taste is sweet-ish, minimally sugary, caramel malty, slightly spicy, minimally fruity hoppy, notes of caramel, vanilla, hundreds and thousands, hints of preserved yellow stone fruit, weak hop bitterness, minimally metallic overtones.
Dissolved sugar enriched, watery texture, smooth and soft palate, medium to fine, mildly prickly carbonation.
Imbalanced, sweet and sugary, a tad overspiced, supressed fruity hop flavours without a real chance to flower out - so-so.

Amber with a fleeting, fizzing head. Aroma promises marshmallow, banana, mixed tropical fruits—all of it fairly low key. Taste is sweet the whole way through with the lactose dominant. Hops? No show. Lingering milk sugar on the tongue. Medium bodied, fizzy, one-dimensional. Not my idea of a good IPA.
