Clear golden beer with a thick foamy head. Light citrus aroma with a distinct lemon edge to it. The flavour is initially bittersweet but it doesn’t stay strong for long. It settles into a hoppy, tangy but light flavour with just a touch of malt in the finish. Drinkable but nothing special.

Bottle. Amber with an inch of white head. Floral aroma with hay, white peaches, oranges, some berries, light spices. Light bodied, rather fizzy. Bittersweet taste with honeyed hay, rather more grapefruity citrus than suggested by the aroma. Dryish and fairly bitter at the end. Hoppy and refreshing. Damn that Tricky-Woo.

500ml Bottle: BBD 28 Sep 14, poured into a UK pint sleeve on 15 Feb 14. Nice looking brew, light amber body with a good head that lasted well. The nose was a blend of light malts, hedgerow fruitiness and woody notes. The taste was also a blend, with the malts just about winning the battle with the hops that have now turned slightly citrus in nature. Dry bittering finish with a long aftertaste. Not too bad at all for a 4.0% ABV session ale.

500ml bottle. Clear golden amber colour, foamy white head leaving alittle lacing and aroma of malt, toffee. Taste is malty, with caramel, toffee & light citrus notes and some earthy bitterness. Light bodied, medium carbonation, dry metallic bitter finish. Quite OK

500ml bottle shared at a Christmas gathering. Pours clear amber, short-lived white head. Some light floral hop notes, some caramel. Taste is a bit watery and thin. OK as a session beer, but I’d rather sip something with character, than knock back pints of bland stuff.

50cl bottle from ASDA. An innocuous pale ale. Pale amber in colour with a frothy white head; aroma of slightly stewed malts; malty taste with a light grassy bitterness; and a clean finish. There’s not a lot more to say about this.

500ml bottle from Tesco - Golden with a bubbly head. Aromas are a bit grassy and cereal, with a hint of citrus. Flavours are crisp, lemon with sour apple and an underlying sweetness. Dry, peppery finish. Pretty good.

Light amber, clear, frothy white head that dissipates
Aroma of very soft fruity malt, hint of hedgerow berry fruit, slight hint of custard
Taste of soft light sweet pale malts, some soft twiggy English hops, touch musty, average flavour
Palate - Moderate carb, light body, slight sweet. Finish quite dry, as main flavour, slight custardy note, some more bitter English hop in the tail
Overall - Average supermarket fare
