On tap at Creative Juices Taproom, Maple Cross, Rickmansworth, Herts. A hazy dark ruby/red coloured pour with a medium pink head on top. Sweetish, tart, cherry, hint of vanilla. Not so memorable really.

Pale and hazy with a small white head. The aroma is pleasantly distinct, with lots of exotic fruits, citrus, pine, but also wheat. Full-bodied, balanced, and velvety, with a strong influence from the oats and wheat; low carbonation. The flavour is restrained, featuring berries, stone fruit, peach, passion fruit, and grapes, along with a grapefruit-like bitterness. Wonderfully hoppy and incredibly smooth!

Can at home picked up from Morrisons. A hazed golden orange coloured pour with a lasting white head. Aroma is soft wheaty grains, orange rind, tangerine, some tangy breakfast orange, mango. Flavour is composed of semi sweet, rounded grains, wheat, some oats, mixed citrus, orange, peach. Bit of the sweet side. Palate is semi sweet, rounded, moderate carbonation. Lingering mellow dank and orange, Not bad for a supermarche offering.
