From a 500ml bottle on 23/10/2016. Pours a murky light golden with a small head. The nose features some light fruit, with some fridge notes. In the mouth, it’s a bit weak, with muted sweet fruit - you get the tangelo, but it lacks any real bite or zest, resulting in something that feels half baked. Light to medium body with soft carbonation. Uninspiring.

Bottle (Farside Beers). Black with a tan head that fades to a cm. Aroma of Bounty, gentle spices. Some roasted malt, some dark berries. Nice, but too much coconut. Just oily, lowish carbonation. Sweetish with light bread, berries, chocolate, mild spices. Bitterness creeps up a bit and with it at the end is plenty of coconut and oak. Nicely weighted and balanced.
