[33cl can from Home Bargains, Bracknell.] An amber pour with a fast fading white head; aroma of noble hops and honey; honeyed taste with a grainy body; and lingering honey to finish. Not what I was expecting.

[33cl can from Home Bargains.] A pale amber pour with a thin white head; grass hop aroma; light citrusy taste with a sweet grainy body; and a dry finish with some bitter grapefruit peel. Fairly basic, but drinkable.

440ml can from Home Bargains. It pours lightly hazy yellow with a decent frothy white head. The aroma is soft, sweet, honeyed grain, doughy bread, sponge cake, custard cream biscuits and sweet fatty / buttery vibes. The taste is crisp & dry upfront, snappy, some bitterness, green, grassy, straw, some sweet maltiness, sponge cake, biscuit, cracker, spice and floral accents with a very firm and drying finish. Average body and moderate carbonation. Much sweeter on the snout than taste. Pretty decent for the style.

Can from Home Bargains, Salford. Black with a very thin head. Slightly denser tasting than expected for its strength, but this does serve to give the brew its pudding texture and taste with custard coming across through some pleasant vanilla notes.

Can from Home Bargains, Reading. Chestnut coloured with a white head. Lebkuchen up front. Clove and cinnamon with earthy notes. Fruit cake then some nice bitter orange marmalade to finish. Long lasting spicy aftertaste. They've nailed this; a really pleasant surprise, didn't expect something this good from Home Bargains.

[44cl can from Home Bargains, Bracknell.] A peaty brown coloured pour with a rim of beige head; aroma of chocolate malt and a little spice; milky mouthfeel with a fruity chocolate taste to start; then some nutmeg and orange, followed by vanilla essence. Better than expected.

Bottle from Home Bargains, Salford.. Golden-blonde with a thin head. More than palatable lager, although it is very much just a standard style lager
