Bottle from Aldi, Keighley. Hazy slightly lighter golden coloured with a small head. Hoppy ale with quite a high bitterness factor to it.

Bottle from Beers of Europe. Poured a slightly hazy straw colour with a frothy white head. The aroma is skunky barnyard malt, woody hop. The flavour is moderate to strong bitter with a crisp, big woody hop bitter palate and a long bitter finish. Medium bodied with average carbonation.

50cl bottle from Aldi, Bracknell. A hazy pale amber pour with a loose white head; sweet grapefruit aeoma; slightly sharper grapefruit taste; with a lingering dry fruity finish with some pineapple and other tropical fruits. Rather good.

500ml bottle from Aldi - Hazy yellow body, blotchy white top. Nose is lemony, a bit of grain. Taste has a little bitterness, not the most exciting looking or tasting.

500ml bottle: BBD 3rd May 18. Obtained from a local Aldi and drank at home on 14th June 17. Light haze to the golden pour, white crown. Citrus like aromas, taste also on the citrusy side, lemons and pineapple flavours seemed to marry together along with a light maltiness. Liked it.

Bottle from Asda. Pleasant pale ale, with a touch of sharp citrus fruits, crisp malts, hay and a decent, bitter finish. Went well with spicy food. Good.

Bottle from Aldi and drunk at home. Hazy gold coluor and a lasting cream head. Decent golden ale. Nothing wrong with it. Some pineapple hop flavour in the mouth, some bitterness on the finish. A little thin maybe but otherwise fine. Had a lot worse.

Bottle. Aldi. Pale gold. Light haze. Frothy, thick, white head. Nose has buttery malts. Some faint hop. Clarified butter. Taste is malty sweet. Some grassy bitterness. Light body. Foamy carbonation. A bit sticky. Grassy bitter finish. A bit grim. And definitely not a session IPA.
