Bottle from Sainsbury's. Appearance - golden with a short-lived, off-white, head and steady carbonation. Nose - citrus and brown bread with some caramel coming in at the back. Taste - biscuit, caramel and orange mainly, perhaps some red fruit lurking too. Palate - light to medium bodied, sweetish middle and fairly dry on the finish. Overall - harmless.

500ml bottle. Amber in colour and hazy, with a short-lived, off-white, head and plenty of carbonation. Some citrus hop character, hedgerow fruit sweetness, chewy malts and white pepper leading to a moderately bitter finish. Enjoyable.

Bottle from you know where. Appearance - amber with a fluffy off-white head. Nose - Hobnobs, toffee, dried fruit but definitely on the money with the ginger bread. Taste - caramel, Highland Toffee bar and chewy gingerbread. Palate - medium bodied with a chewy texture and still a fairly sweetish finish. Overall - a bit sweet but still enjoyable.

Bottle from Sainsbury's obviously. Appearance - golden amber with gentle carbonation and a fluffy white head. Nose - caramel, biscuit and dried orange. Taste - more caramel with honeycomb and toffee. Hobnob and sultana. Palate - light to medium bodied, creamy middle with gentle bitterness after initial sweetness. Overall - somewhere between a bitter and a west coast ipa.
