500ml bottle from my local Morrisons store. Shared with Bob on 11th June 2025 at my place. Clean and clear golden pour, white crust on each glass. I thought this was OK for a 3.4% ABV cheap supermarket beer. Fruity and easy to drink, slight bitterness towards the finish. Sure it's thin rather than robust or heavy bodied, but it's not unpleasant or offensive.

[50cl bottle from Morrisons, Bracknell.] A pale amber pour with a fast fading white head; faint tropical fruit aroma hiding behind some musty grains; thin in the mouth with a weak mango taste and a sweet biscuity body; then a watery finish. Poor.
