440ml can from Asda. Cloudy gold in colour, with a small, white, head. Aroma of citrus hops, with some hay and pineapple notes.Flavour had plenty more tropical fruit, with some white pepper character, and a suggestion of pine. The finish was dryish and this beer was enjoyable.

Can from ASDA Supermarket, Manchester. Hazy golden with a smallish head. Citrus and pine combine in both aroma and taste, with its strength fairly evident but not a dominant factor as it's quite fresh tasting at the same time.

Can on 712 heading South, thanks to Rich, 26/02/23. Moderately hazed orange with a white cap that thins to a swirl. Nose is orange zest, hint of lime, citric tinged straw, melon. Taste comprises orange zest, papaya, hint of stoned fruits, grass. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close spliced with mellow Sabro laden hop bitterness. Decent.
