Can from Waitrose, Sheffield. Golden with a head. Mildly sweet with a very close apple and custard mix, certainly the fruit is evident enough, with sugary notes.

440ml can from Waitrose. Poured a hazy yellow golden colour with a lasting frothy white head. The aroma is vanilla lactose, light apple. The flavour is moderate sweet, with a crisp, fresh, herbal, bubblegum, tart apple, vanilla palate. Medium bodied with average carbonation.

Can from some supermarket or other. A very light haze on this gold beer, small bubbly pale cream colour head. Airy palate, semi dry, decent fine minerally carbonation. Floral candy apple into thin vanilla that is also pretty sweet. Some pine, some perfume and quite a large dose of wtf from me. It's not a bad concept but the delivery is pretty clunky. Thin somewhat artificial, lacks a vibrancy or boldness to really carry it off. It seems to know it's a clunker so behaves accordingly!

Can from Waitrose. Pours hazy yellow gold with a thin white head. Aromas of apple, cinnamon and vanilla. Taste is more of the same. If they'd made these flavours with just malt, hops, yeast and water if be impressed. But I know they haven't, so it's just a bit meh.
Spiced apple, vanilla, not overly sweet, soft and light, quite original this one!
