Watery fruity beginning. Very extreme watery with a grainy malty back. Slightly bitter, grain, water. Refreshing.

Huge thanks to quack-duck for that one! Bottle looks simple but good. Beer in the glass with a nice head. Fresh sweetish hoppy aroma. Starts mild but not washy, fine fresh hoppy notes, fruity hints of lemon, some peaches. Shy bitterness. Finish well balanced. Easy to drink. Nice!

Huge thanks to WillemsUrenkel for that one! Can looks simple but good. Beer in the glass with a small head. Starts mild, not as washy as exspected, dry malty, mild metallical touch. Shy hops. Finish a bit boring. Okay.

Bottle from Bromley Sainsburys. Bright gold pour with a white head. Orange peel & sweet spice aromas. Malty sweet taste, tinge of bitterness. Easy drinking action. Lightly spiced finish. Not bad for £1.

0,44 l can from Erzengel. Thanks a lot! Clear dark golden with a more than one finger white foamy head in the glass. Grainy with sweet malt on the nose. Flat taste, some nut elements, sweet cereales, low malt. Watery. Low carbonated. Boring.

[50cl bottle from my local Sainsbury's] A bright pale amber pour with a pillowy cream head and gentle carbonation; peachy aroma; soft peachy taste with a velvety mouthfeel; and a peachy finish with a touch of citrus peel adding bitterness. Interesting to compare this to Aldi's weaker peach beer from the same brewery - this one is smoother with a subtler flavour and less bitterness. All in all, a super summer beer.
