Can. Misted golden amber with a 1/2 inch head. 3+ Aroma of grapefruit pith, light bread, some softer citrus, sherbet, peach. Not quite as vibrant a taste but fruity with some light pine needles and spices towards the dryish and moderately bitter end.

Can. Close to clear pale gold with a large white head. Surprisingly diffident aroma is grassy with some light grape notes, honey and crackers. But rather more vibrant hop notes in the taste - citrus, under-ripe tropical fruit, grapes. The finish is firmly bitter. Pretty good.

(Can) Pours opaque amber with good white head. Lovely aroma of citrus, tropical fruit and pine. Full bodied with plenty of soft bright carbonation. Great taste. Plenty of hops but with a nice amount of bitterness in the long finish. Fruity and refreshing through the start and middle. There’s some subtle biscuit malt too. Very nice.

Can. Opaque orange with a 2cm white head. 3+ Aroma of stone and tropical fruit with just enough of a citrus and herbal edge to stop it smelling overwhelmingly sweet. Lots of peach, pineapple and guava. And that edge is there in the taste too - no real bitterness but an astringent edge that stops short of hop burn but keeps things together. Good.

Pours so pale you could mistake it for a sour, but it's all up from there. There are nice, sharp aromas of lemon, coriander, grass, pineapple and bread. Similar flavours in the mouth, with a hint of green apple at the finish as well. Very enjoyable.

One of the beers that's bringing me back home to lagers. It has some light citrus and apple aromas with a doughy malt finish. The hops are delicious in the mouth, with a little grapefruit and grass and a nice bready malt. It's quite complex, with a very pleasant aftertaste.

Can. Fairly hazy yellowish orange with a good cm of white head. Orange box aroma with berries (red & goose) and pepper leaf. Light bodied, very slightly chalky. Dryish with crackers, hints of pineapple, little berries, wintery oranges. Black pepper and pine needles at the moderately bitter finish. Very nice.

Can. Opaque orange with an inch of white head that fades to less than a coat. Aroma of peach, mango skin, subtle citrus and melon touches. Very sweet with luscious peach. A little citrus and a slightly astringent herbal note at the end but no real bitterness. Nice stuff if a little too smoothly juicy for my tastes.
