Bottle brought by Pilot Goran all the way from South Africa. Huge thanks! Shared with him and Višnja 666. Clear amber, small off-white head. Malts, fruit jam, some hops. Light bitterness. Maybe a bit old. Not bad anyway. Medium body, moderate carbonation, sweetness with a dry finish.

340ml bottle. Clear golden amber colour with a small white head. Aroma literally just smells of hay, farmyard, very odd for a pale ale, some citrus but hard to detect. Taste is similarly odd, some funky citrus fruits, orange, again some strange farmyard notes, hard to describe, finish is bitter. Light body, quite thin, watery-oily texture. Not a good pale ale, something may have been off with this bottle.

340ml bottle. Pours clear golden amber with a small head, quickly dissipating. Aroma of light sweet pale malts, grainy, corn, subtle hops. Taste of sweet malts, grainy, corny, any hops are too subtle to notice, a touch of bitterness in the finish. Light body, thin oily texture, average carbonation. Ok but really not that much better than most big macro produced lagers.

Taste is sweet and malty, fruits, toffee, honey, subtle grassy and citrus hops, gentle bitterness on the finish. Light body, average-heavy carb. A little unbalanced with the sweetness but ok for what it is.

440ml bottle. Pours crystal clear golden amber with a small beige head. Aroma is a little weak, malty with some fruity hops, light citrus. Taste is similarly malty, a little caramel/toffee balanced with nice citrus fruity hops, finish is quite bitter. Medium body, average carbonation. Not bad but nothing to excite me.
