500 cl. bottle @ home, gift from Rick. Deep golden with a thin white head. Malty slightly hoppy nose but not so hoppy as to justify the name IPA. Taste is light as well as the mouthfeel. Quite a decent but forgettable beer.

Bottle from Morrisons and drunk at home. Clear gold thick white head. Hoppy aroma. It’s an ok APA/IPA. Touch of pine hop on aroma. Bitter on the finish. Some harshness rather than proper bitterness. Some white pepper. It’s ok. Quite decent, quite tasty.

500ml Bottle: BBD 31 Aug 14, poured into a UK pint sleeve on 29 Dec 13. Good deep off-white head on a clear orange/old golden body: carbonation bubbles rising through the body clearly visible. The nose has a caramel malty lead with floral hop notes arriving later. The taste is also malt led, semi-sweet toffee and caramel flavours in fact. The hop content then takes over a little and the beer become bitter and drying towards the end of each sip. The flavours hide the 5.8% ABV well and the body has enough depth to carry the beer along nicely. This was a lot better than I thought it would be and for a fairly cheap ’supermarket brew’ it was great value.

Clear blond appearance. Some toffee maltiness in the aroma but also a bit stale. Quite a thick, silky texture. Flavour of pale malts and light fruity hop. Fails to pack a flavour punch.

bottle at home ... coper ... small white head ... soft metalic hop ...light orange nose ... soft oily bitter fruits .. quite zezty but a big metalic undettone.

50cl bottle from Morrisons. Golden amber with a fast fading white head; grassy aroma; soft with a soap suddy mouth feel, a good malty body and a light floral taste; the finish has some dusty hops adding some spicy notes, and is pleasingly full with a touch of honey. Enjoyable.
