Bottle at home, from HOTM online, 21/06/22. Clear light golden with a good sized white cap as it goes for a cider, carbonation evident. Nose is sweet apple, tannins, sugars, caramel. Taste comprises more sweet apple, apple skins, balsa wood, tannins, sugars. Medium bodied, light spritzy carbonation, semi drying close. Ok crushable apple juice on a hot day but little depth offered and on the sweet side.

Bottle from Co-op, Hebden Bridge. Bought this thinking it was a new brewery to me, but no - it's just one that's changed its name. Grrrrr. Anyway, it's slightly hazy amber with a negligible white head. It's far too fizzy. Wheaty malt up front, then a touch of cardboard before a citrus hint in the mildly dry finish. It's a low-grade supermarket bitter.

Bottle from British Local Craft. This has a gorgeous aroma – bur I’m not sure I can describe it. There’s hops, malt and yeast in there along with a little chocolate. Pours a golden ornage with a small whitehead. Plenty of bitterness in the mouth, on top of a sweet malty base . Bitter oranges and biscuits intensify as time goes by. Finish is bitter and fruity. More of a traditional bitter than a golden ale. Doesn’t quite match up to the aroma, but still very good.
