Bottle from Morrisons. A new bottled beer from a supermarket is something of a rarity for me these days. Pours a dark ruby with well formed foamy beige top, nice lacing. Very tempting aroma of caramel, coffee and chocolate. Taste has a toffee and chocolate with an underlying bitter coffee and hint of orange peel. Tasty. For a supermarket offering this is a bit of a triumph. Best Badger beer I've had to date.

Bottle from Waitrose. My 10th Badger beer. Clear gold with small white head, looks very carbonated. Quite a citric aroma, slightly soapy with biscuit notes. Light mouthfeel with a high but fine carbonation. Taste has a floral drying quality with some biscuit and citric notes underneath. Nowhere near as good as their Golden Champion beer.

Bottle from Morrison's. Clear amber-brown with small white head. Aroma of malt, orange pith, flora. Taste is again quite malty, orange pith and zest, pine, quite resinous with occasional funkiness, pepper. Medium bodied, slightly cloying. A traditional English style but they've upped the hop level a bit more than normal for a traditional brewer. In this example it has imparted more flavour but has left it slightly unbalanced and oily. Having said that overall I reasonably enjoyed it.

500ml bottle from Morrisons. Pours a clear amber with small white head Aroma is sweet and fruity with the passion fruit and mango adjuncts at the fore, hints of malts. Taste is malty, biscuit, fruit syrup concentrate, a moderate bitter bite and tangy finish, then an unpleasant aftertaste at first although recedes after a while. Smooth medium body, a little syrupy. There is no harmony between malt, hops and adjunct. A fun beer that's a little bit rubbish.
