Can from Aldi. Hazy deep golden body with a thin off-white head. No visible carbonation. Patchy lacing. Aroma of cantaloupe and orange cream sweets. Flavour of orange and angel delight. Medium body with a smooth mouthfeel. Soft fizz. It’s soft and sweet. Very good indeed for the price (although at 7.0% ABV, it’s an IPA not a DIPA).

Can from Aldi, Inverurie. It pours cloudy golden - orange with a fluffy white head. The aroma is sweet, juicy, peaches & cream, mango, passion fruit, orange chewits, orange squash, papaya and apricot yoghurt. The taste has a crisp dryness initially which smoothes out, juicy, sweet candied fruits, gummy bears, orange crème, peach cobbler, apricot yoghurt, orange chewits, prickly booze, sponge cake and a touch of spice with a relatively short, fruity finale. Average body and soft yet fluffy carbonation. Probably flirts with being too sweet imo. Good boost offered for the cost. Not bad.

Keg at the brewery taproom. Pours clear dark brown with a thin beige head. Aromas of bread and coffee. Taste is more of the same. Light fruity note. Bit too much flavour for a hobgoblin clone!

Can from Aldi (I assume). Or pours mostly clear orangey/dirty gold with a dissipating frothy white head. The aroma is sweet, juicy, ripe tropical vibes, mango, passion fruit, pineapple, blueberries and candied orange peel. The taste is bitter - sweet, touch green and piney to begin, light weed, then plump ripe tropical fruits, mango, juicy peach, pineapple, pithy citrus, fruit cocktail, quite smooth and some mellow alcohol warmth through a soft finish. Medium body and average carbonation. Very good beer for the £££. Not sweet or sickly. Decent.
