330ml bottle. Poured a hazy golden orange colour with a lasting frothy white head. The aroma is grainy malt, earthy, zesty lemon lime citrus. The flavour is moderate bitter and sweet, with a crisp, juicy citrus, slightly tart, light pepper spice, light dry hop bitter palate. Medium bodied with average to lively carbonation. Very drinkable for a session beer.

Bottle from my work Secret Santa. Soapy herbal and citrus aroma. Pale gold. Thin frothy translucent white head. Light-medium sour citrus with underlying happiness - so as per the aroma. Light bitter, moreso into the finish. Light. Click if thin. Benefits from soft-fizzy carbonation. Long dry slightly astringent finish. Nice enough. Quite zippy, if I could do with less soap in the mix.

Can, 0.33l. Cloudy yellow pour, two finger soapy white head, medium lasting. Fairly good retention, lots of broken lacing on the glass as it goes down. Nose is simple, a bit zesty, on the sour side. Yeasty, pineapple notes in the background. Thin body, medium carbonation. Mildly fizzy on the tongue, light texture. Medium bitter, medium sour taste. Aroma of caramel malt, yeast, citrus zest, pineapple. Slightly acidic. A bit dry, lingering bitterness. Seems a bit unbalanced. Short to medium lasting finish. Mediocre.

Bottle from Tesco. Golden in colour, with a slight haze and frothy, white, head. Pineapple and tangerine fruits, citrus hops, light malts and bitter, leading to a dryish, jammy, finish. A good beer.
