Can from Aldi and drunk at home. Hazy pale gold colour lasting white head. Tropical fruit aroma and flavour. Mango guava. Moderate bitterness on the finish. Yes flavours are good. I rather liked it.

Can. Clear golden body with a white head that quickly fades. Low carbonation. No lacing. Aroma of melon, tinned orange and orange barley. Flavour of straw and tangerine. Thin to medium body with a slick mouthfeel. Soft fizz. Light and fruity, but slightly artificial tasting.

Can. Near clear and slightly paleish gold beer, small bubbly white head. Palate is light and semi dry, a good fine minerally crispness, overall a thinish mouthfeel. Light thin malts, a thin creamy sweetness. Pronounced and slightly candy peach intermingles with crisp pine. Mild citrus and mild bubblegum esters. Light finish. Don't hate this but it feels thin and forced, slightly artificial. WB can do better than this.
For a few quid from Aldi, it's pretty good.

[44cl can from my local Aldi.] A clear pale amber pour with a loose white head; malty aroma with some tropical fruit; thin in the mouth with some pineapple, then lime and lime; but little to finish.

Can from Aldi, Gorgie. Pours clear yellow gold with a thin white head. Aromas of light tropical fruit and citrus. Taste is more of the same. Thin finish.

Can from Aldi, Chippenham. Gold with an obvious fizz and a lasting white head. Rather thin and watery. Light tropical fruit up front, with lemon and lime taking over as you drink more. A light dusty bitterness at the end. It's an ok brew that seemed to go rather well with my fish and chips - I quite enjoyed it.

Can from Aldi, Ellon. It pours crystal clear very pale gold with a medium, fluffy white head. The aroma is fresh, sweet, juicy, ripe white grape, melon, guava, white sugar and pic n mix. The taste is crispy, dry, firm, snappy, melon, crunchy white grape, unripe pear, guava, greengage, straw, pear skin, white sugar and light tannin with a drying finish. Light to average body and moderate, fluffy carbonation. Both dry and sweet and the same time. Interesting stuff.

Can from Aldi Supermarket, Manchester. Lighter, almost clear golden with a small head. Quite a hoppy ale, its tropical fruit verges on the exotic at times. This is evident in both aroma and taste, although never getting that stated.
