7.4/10 Appearance 6 Aroma 7 Flavor 8 Texture 8 Overall 7.5
330ml bottle. Aroma is peach, a little white chocolate sickliness and a bunch more peach. Flavour has got lots of juicy peach, and juicy is the best way to describe the mouthfeel too. There’s some subdued sweetness to finish. Really refreshing. Could easily sink a few of these on a hot day.

330ml bottle. Aroma is grass, pine, pepper and a little tropical fruit. Flavour is some grass, pepper, and some tropical fruit in the finish. There’s also a lingering savouriness. It’s got a nice full mouthfeel, and it’s really quite drinkable, but there’s definitely space to improve.

4.8/10 Appearance 6 Aroma 5 Flavor 5 Texture 4 Overall 4
330ml bottle. Pours a bright yellow, with brief head. Aroma is floral with white wine vinegar. Taste has plenty of hay, grass and vinegar. Problem is it all comes at once, and the finish is cloying syrupy sweet. A good pilsener is fresh, clean and above all crisp. There is too much flavour here trying to do too much, and the mix is far too messy. A real struggle to finish.

330ml bottle. Aroma is odd, with a manufactured sweetness. It honestly smells a bit like a bag of gummy bears. Something unpleasant and floral makes it worse. The taste marries the candy to some orange and apple fruitiness and a little spice warmth on the finish. Honestly, this is a decent beer, just not for my palate.
