6.5% version seems to have been brought out of retirement. Pours hazy golden with a thin white head. Aromas of orchard fruits, citrus, caramel. Taste is more of the same. Good texture, long bitter finish.

Bottle (6.4% ABV) from The Beerhive. Hazy amber body with a medium off-white head. Steady carbonation. Nice lacing. Aroma of nuts, brown bread, dirt and yeast. Flavour of marzipan, bran flakes and earthy spic. Quite hot and boozy. Medium body with a smooth mouthfeel. Light fizz. Unusual - I’m unsure if I like it or not.

Bottle from The Beerhive. Hazy amber body with a thick off-white head. Low carbonation. Faint lacing. Aroma of tangerine, mint leaves and lightly toasted bread. Flavour of grass, lime and zingy grapefruit. Thin to medium body with an oily texture. Soft fizz. The hops really shine in this. As with the first reviewer, it reminded me of a Mallinsons beer.
