Can from Home Bargains, Salford City Shopping Centre. Hazy light golden with a light tropical fruitiness in both aroma and taste, some bitterness, a little bit average in design but certainly drinkable.

Large can from local Home Bargains store. Just a general fruitiness in the aroma – not much more. Pours a hazy to cloudy lemon yellow with a strong but transient white head. In the mouth it has a creamy texture and flavour is fruits, some lime and lemon. I can’t really taste any hops at all. Pretty uninspiring to say the least.

440ml can (3.7% ABV) from my local Home Bargains store: BB 9th Jun 2021. Drank at home on 14th Feb 2021; Happy Valentines Day! Poured into an Abbot Ale glass tankard; hazy, dull golden body, huge white head. Pretty boring nose and taste, bland fruity blend with not much going on aroma or flavour wise. If in fact there is Simcoe, Mosaic, Ekuanot and Cascade Hops in the brew they can't have used much of them.

Can. Home Bargains. Wow. This is shite. Looks like old piss in a bottle. Smells like boiled, sweaty vests. Taste is actually offensive. I rarely throw beer away, but I managed about 50ml of this.

Can from Home Bargains, Salford City Shopping Precinct. Very mildly hazed golden coloured ale with no head. Has a slightly sweetened nose with a bitter-sweet taste. It's a somewhat older style of IPA brewing, sort of making a change from the majority of canned ales being citrus based except it's not the finest of tastes, akin to flavourless chewing-gum.

Can from Home Bargains, Salford Shopping Precinct. Lightly hazed golden ale with somewhat bubbly head. Hoppy and malty, but not that balanced as there's more of the former available. Some citrus fruitiness helps provide a lasting bitterness. Easy strength.

330ml can: BB 13th Jun 2021. Drank at home on 30th Jan 2021. No head, dull orange colour, smell and taste are of over ripe and rotting fruit; is it supposed to taste like a sour? This is bad, a lesser man would pour it down the drain, but I'm made of stronger stuff and I am going to finish it!

440ml can: BB 31st Jun 2021. Drank at home on 29th Jan 2021. Mini-haze in the golden body, decent head that tried to hang around. Light citrus nose giving way to a caramel, malty aroma; taste also dominated by maltiness, not too sure where the 'Hopster' went. Actually I liked it.

Can from local Home Bargains. Has a slight aroma of hoppiness mixed with detergent. Pours a very pale straw with a sizeable but very transient white head. In the mouth fairly high carbonation can be detected, though otherwise it is fairly watery. Some fruity hops and traces of nuts. Slight bitterness in the finish. Not bad – plenty of bite for its strength.
