A melon-peach aroma with the melon being prominent. Dark tan color with light brown head. Flavor primarily peach with melon fading - fruit flavor just detectable without being overwhelming. I found this beer enjoyable for what it was - a good choice to impress a girl on a date - no bitterness at all (passed my mother-in-law’s taste test).

Sweet malt and hops aroma and nice appearance. Moderate carbonation but very light malt flavor - not much here flavorwise.

Sweet hop aroma. Regular pale yellow color. Sweet malty flavor with descent palate. Had it in a can - may be better from a bottle or tap.

Spicy - ginger flavor nearly overpowering. Don’t buy this if you want a typical English ale. Very unique but very different from your typical beer.

Golden color. Light herbal aroma and flavor, a bit malty, maybe lemony, strange and not convincing.

Gold color. Paper aroma, some malt. Poor taste, supported only by a strong bitterness. Deceptively poor lager

(500 ml bottle). Deep golden colour, good head. Nice hoppy and elderflower aroma. Elderflower is probably what I get in the flavour too, but I've never eaten elderflowers, so I can't really tell. There's some caramel and a reasonably decent hoppiness, but it's a bit too sweet IMO. A bit alcoholic too, despite only 5% ABV.

An amber beer with a fine beige head. The aroma is sweet hoppy. The flavor lovely sweet. A very nice bitter.

A light brown beer with no head. The aroma is sweet and malty, and so is the flavor. A good ale.

An amber beer with a fine, but fast disappearing head. The aroma is slight with notes of sweetness and fruit. The flavor is flat, but malty sweet. It is the best Badger beer I've had - but it's no more than just above average.
