Bottle from Asda, Telford. Golden with no head. Has a hoppy-sweetness to it, this is possibly the citrus within the ale as stated on the bottle, but the citrus itself is not overly obvious. What is more obvious is its bitterness, but this is also only mid-bitterness at best.

Bottle from Asda, Telford. Copper-gold with no head. It's a tad malty, but it's aptly named as its hops are evident, and it certainly is a bitter in style. There's a bready-sweetness to proceedings with plenty of taste here.
