568ml can, sourced from the NM webshop so definitely kept in significantly better conditions than the supermarkets.
Clear golden with a white head. Aroma of citrus fruits and resin, grapefruit. Taste of orange and grapefruit, resinous, mild herbal, piney bitter finish. Medium bodied.
Good effort especially for a supermarket beer, bitterness feels a little restrained for the style, aiming for broader appeal no doubt.
No idea why it needed to be packaged in such a bigly pint can though!?

568 ml can as part of an ASDA shop, drunk at home. Light gold and clear with a quickly dissipating off-white head. Aroma gives plenty of pine, lemongrass, sharp citrus. Taste is nicely bitter, more pine, a little soapy,massive grapefruit hop. Bitter and slightly dry on the finish. Body is full with soft to medium carbonation. Impressive if maybe a little below Northern Monk's usual standards.

Pint can. Asdas. Soft hazed gold. Decent white foam stays the course. Nose has pine air freshener. Some sweet citrus. That’s about it really. Taste has an initial brioche like sweetness before getting resinous and sappy bitter. Sticky on the palate. Needs drinking very cold this one. Sappy bitterness to finish. Very one dimensional and tbh it got boring by the end of the fuck off big can.

Can at Dad's that he picked up from Asda, had this at Dad's in the company of Dad, Pauline, Scott and Mandy, Kilburn, Derbyshire. Pours clear or as good as clear gold with a white head. Soft mouthfeel, resinous, bitter and dry, nice.

Not bad. I like the characteristics here but they are a bit neutered. Some light sun-kissed pine, dried citrus fruits, dry pale malts. Easy drinking overall.

Can at home picked up from Sainsbury's. A clear golden orange coloured pour with a lasting loose white head. Aroma is tangy orange rind, wet grass, tangy , some dirty pine. Flavour is composed of semi sweet, bready grains, stale bread, spicy citrus, pine, some hot alcohol, fairly cheap tasting, Palate is semi sweet, light tangy, moderate carbonation. Some alcohol bite in the finish.

Can from Sainsbury’s. Clear golden body with a thick white head. Low carbonation. Faint lacing. Aroma of pine, furniture polish and menthol. Flavour of pine and pot puri. Medium body with a slick mouthfeel. Soft fizz. Very piney and resinous. A random guy in the supermarket warned me that this was too piney and I can see his point. I think it’s pretty good overall.
