Smells of mellow raspberry, has good foam on top of a cloudy pink-brown body. Flavour is bright raspberry mixed with malt. Crisp mouthfeel. Well done, nice drinker.

473ml can with amazing artwork on label. Pours a slightly hazy gold with a medium, foamy, long lasting, off-white head that leaves chunky lacing. Mild, sweet aroma of caramel malt, grapefruit and piney hops. Sweet flavour of caramel malt and grapefruit with a clean, crisp, dry, mild bitter, spicy hop finish. Light body with a watery texture and average carbonation. Pretty simple, but flavourful and easy to drink.

355ml can. Pours a clear red-brown with a small, foamy, long lasting, beige head that laces. Mild aroma of roasted malt, chocolate, nuts and earth. Sweet flavour of roasted malt, dark chocolate, caramel, nuts and earth with a dry, bitter, hoppy finish. Light to medium body with an oily texture and soft carbonation. Too hoppy to be a Mild Ale, it's more of a Brown Ale. Regardless of style, there's nothing to see here. Next!
