Bottle from the Vineyard, Belfast. Appearance - cloudy orange to brown. Nose - pine, grapefruit and a hint of malt sweetness. Taste - more grapefruit going into orange. Light pine or herbs again. Palate - creamy texture, dry finish and fairly balanced. Overall - good.

[On tap at the Distillers Arms, Bushmills.] A hazy amber pour with a tight white cap; grainy aroma; smooth and full bodied with some carzamel and gently bitter English-style hops. Quite refined and very moreish.

Bottle at John Hewitts Belfast listening to some young folks kick out the Irish jams. Orange pour two finger head. Nose is citrus and light pine. Tastes of grapefruit, pine, candy, red fruit punch. Lighter bodied nothing special.
