330ml bottle from the Savanna online. Orangey amber gold colour, off-white foam head leaving lacing and aroma of malt, pine, mellow citrus, hop resin. Taste is sweetish, malt caramel, coconut hint, fruity, woody pine, citrusy grapefruit, with resiny hop bitterness. Medium bodied, soft carbonation, dry earthy bitter finish. Quite drinkable.

[340ml bottle from the South African shop at Victoria Station.] A bright golden amber pour with a billowing cream coloured head; aroma of burnt toffee and orange peel; slightly oily, thick and malty in the mouth with a taste of bitter cinder toffee and some mandarin (according to the label it's made exclusively with Mandarina Bavaria which is a favourite of mine). A satisfying mellow beer, reminding me more of an English ESB than an IPA, and much, much better than the brewery's Cape Point Pale Ale.

[340ml bottle from the South African shop at Victoria Station] A bright amber pour with a loose white head and gentle carbonation; grassy aroma hiding some citrus; dry in the mouth with a touch of satsuma and tangerine; and then little in the way of a finish.

A golden beer, a head is quite small and blond. Aroma has maltyness, low grass and aromatic notes. Taste has maltyness, low grass and sweetness of honey. Medium bodied. Pure but easy to forget.

0,33l bottle from Prisma Imatra. BBE 08/2020. Clear golden beer with medium-, but quite quickly vanishing head. Aroma has grass, butter and malts. Flavor has butter, grass, malts, some sweetness and herbs. Bit boring overall, but decent lager.
