Can 44 cl. Pours a cloudy, opaque golden with a lacing, white head. Faint tropical hop aroma. Medium body, soft on the palate, sweet tropical fruitiness. Hardly any bitterness. Too sweet, too little bitterness. 090526

Ayrshire Coastal Walking Mini Break Beer#25. Bought for hotel drinking. Deeper golden coloured. This one has a towards bubblegum sweetness, not an overly appealing one at first, but as its fruit develops and finds its way against the brew's strength, it does get better - and this is at its best in its aftertaste.

Hazy yellow colour, small white head. Aroma is oaty, citrusy and some rather sweet tones. Flavour is oaty, floral, some slight citrusy and mild herbs to it. One-dimensional.

The aroma is pleasantly juicy and fruity, with plenty of citrus, tropical fruit, mango, passion fruit, stone fruit, and zest. The taste is mild, sweet, not as overtly fruity, with minimal bitterness and a slight albedo. The body is medium to full. Delicate and creamy, with plenty of fruity hops, juicy and very drinkable.
