Half-pint, keg, shared with Finn at Nags's Head. Remaining low white head, bright late straw coloured body, fair lacing. Restrained smell of dusty hops and grainy malts. Flavoured with noble hops, pale malts, and a citric backdrop. Mid-dry ending, discreet bitterness to it. Clean tasting. Fair enough. (Reading 19.11.2021).

330ml can: BBE November 2021. Drank at home on 1st November 2021 (apart from a sample for Grumbo). Clean and clear light golden body, snow white head that tried to stay for a while. Dry tasting, but wet cardboard comes to mind!

330ml can. Clear gold appearance, small white head. Not a lot of peach going on here. None in fact. Soft floral moments. Hm..

Pours fairly clear, medium sized white head. Scent is sharp, rough, somewhat metallic almost. Taste is sharp, metallic idea remains. Sharp hoppyness (earthy, herbal - and not in a great way). Soft bitterness. Sparkling waterry mouthfeel. If you're generous, this beer would be OK, but honestly it's below average. Finishable since it's NA - at least i'm not getting drunk of it, and it has more flavor than sparkling water.

[33cl can from Morrison's, Bracknell.] A pale straw coloured pour with a trace of white head and gentle carbonation; light citrus aroma; more assertive citrus taste, but rather thin and watery. Drinkable, but instantly forgetable.

Pours clear blonde, medium sized white head. Scent is malty, sweet, corny, candy, tad unfresh, heavy-grain focussed (corn doesnt help for freshness either) . Taste is sweet, very recognizable NA base. Just a tad more bitterness and thus balance, than the generic industrial NA's. Still, not even close to a match to the quality NA's you can find nowadays.
