Can from a Beer52 four pack being sold off cheap at Waitrose. Deep gold with a white head. Another one with a far too aggressive and prickly carbonation. Tastes of tangerines and mango and honey and grapefruit. Sweetish with just a little bitterness in the finish. Decent stuff apart from the over-the-top fizz; bet this'd be good on cask!

Fairly clean and dry, some white grape, ripe peach, mango, citrus rind, mellow pine, bready pale malts. Basic but very easy-drinking.

330ml can from Beer52 at 5%. Clear gold with white top. Aroma of citrus, pine, pepper - quite fresh. Taste lacks a touch of zing to it but is quite nice. There is a fruity tang with a honey, light gooseberry and pine. Moderate bitterness.

(On tap) Clear golden with reasonable white head. Aroma is clean refreshing citrus and pine. Medium body with full carbonation. Unusual flavour - there’s an underlying syrupy / honey sweetness that whilst being far from cloying, is somehow disturbing. However, on this is built a nice tangy fruitiness (citrus and tropical). Overall it’s pleasant enough, just slightly odd.
