--Sample, thanks oh6gdx! -- Very pale yellow no head. Aroma of artificial pear icicle. Sweet with saccharine and pear-like additives. Undisguised alcopop on the unbearable side. But still better than many expensive craft double fruited sours.

(Can, 0.5 l, from a supermarket, 20230520) The beer poured golden and hazy. Its head was medium sized and white. Aroma had fruitiness and floralness. Palate was medium bodied with medium carbonation. Flavours were fruitiness, floralness, sweetness, malts and bitterness. Aftertaste was fruity and bitter. A nice hoppy brew.
