Bottled (AbM). Deep orangeish amber colour with a small slightly off-white foamy head. Aroma is herbal, some fruity and floral notes as well as some toffee and sweet malts. Flavour is herbal, mildly resiny along with some nice floral, citrusy and mild sweet malty notes to it. Balanced and refreshing.

Slightly hazy amber beer with a light citrus aroma. Flavour is quite grapefruity. Sour, fruity aftertaste. Right up my alley.

500ml bottle. Clear, slightly faint amber colour with average, thick, frothy, fairly lasting, minimally lacing, white head. Cautious, citrusy hoppy aroma, hints of orange, mandarine, caramel malty background. Taste is citrusy hoppy, caramel and biscuit malty basis with subtle residual sweetness, hints of lemon, orange, grapefruit, yellow stone fruit; super soft palate.

Cask at Ushers. It pours clear amber with a thick white head. The nose is doughy, grassy, hay, earth and light biscuit. The taste is bitter, earthy, grassy, doughy, grapefruit, light resin and hay with a dry finish. Medium body and fine carbonation. Pretty tasty and quaffable.

Bottle from Beer Central, Sheffield. Clear gold. Bubbly, sticky, white head. Sweet, fruity toffee aroma. Some muskiness. Bit of a sweaty thing going on. Taste is malty sweet, followed by a light, metallic bitterness. Pungent bitterness on the finish. Not for me.

500ml bottle at home. Pours clear gold, thin white head. Aromas of lemon soap, a saliney-sweaty kind of note, then grapefruit and other light tropical fruits. Taste has that saline quality too, then a light sweetness. Slightly sweet finish. Not bad, but not my favourite of the series.

Bright clear gold beer with a good pale cream colour head. Palate is airy and a little crisp. Light malt with a touch of lactose cream. Sweetish generic fruits and mildly bitter marmalade. Finishes dry and floral and fairly bitter. Long bitter linger. Interesting beer, nice contrast of bitterness, fruits and milky sweet malts. Also good job on extracting the fruit salad character from the Galaxy that often masked by harsh bitterness.
