The name of the 90's UK sitcom '2 Point 4 Children' referred to the average amount of children per woman aged 45 in the country at the time of writing. If it was commissioned today it would be called '1 point 9 Children' - not as catchy a title! '3 Point 4' would have been a good Ratebeer rating, but I wouldn't have given that to this bland in taste light malts effort. Citrus elevates its aroma.
gave a cheers!

Bottle from Sainsbury's and drunk at home. Clear pale brown colour lasting white head. Some decent hop aroma and flavour. English style hops Some white pepper flavour. Yep some malt presence. Nice enough hops. Yep a likeable drinkable session ale. I liked it.

Bottle from Sainsbury's. Appearance - golden with a short-lived, off-white, head and steady carbonation. Nose - citrus and brown bread with some caramel coming in at the back. Taste - biscuit, caramel and orange mainly, perhaps some red fruit lurking too. Palate - light to medium bodied, sweetish middle and fairly dry on the finish. Overall - harmless.

500ml bottle. Deep golden in colour, with a short-lived, off-white, head and plenty of carbonation. Some citrus hop character, stone fruit sweetness, light malts and a moderately bitter finish. Fine.

[50cl bottle from my local Sainsbury’s.] A pale straw coloured pour with a thin white head; berry fruit aroma; sweet biscuity malt taste with some strawberries and citrus; then a citrus finish. Very summery.
