500ml clear bottle from Morrisons. Pours a clear dark gold/light amber with off-white head. Aroma is grassy with a sweet citrus, biscuit and a light skunk. Taste has plenty of bittering grassy hops with an oily generic citrus and biscuit malt. Light to medium bodied, oily, semi-drying and bitter. It does taste of cheaply brewed ingredients but packs a reasonable punch and flavour profile for £1.

Clear 500ml bottle from my local Morrisons, pre-positioned at Auntie Sue’s and poured into a UK pint bubble tankard on 27th June 2025. Clean and clear bright golden amber body, wispy white head. Grassy nose, citrus hop taste. It’s fine for a cheap (only cost £1:00) supermarket beer at 3.4%ABV. First of five beers I intend to drink today, all pre-positioned for the purpose.

[50cl bottle from Morrisons, Bracknell.] An amber pour with a fast-fading white head and medium carbonation; leafy hop aroma; biscuity malt taste with a little citrus; then a watery finish with some lingering lime. Ok on a hot summer afternoon.
