Tap. Pale amber with a lasting white head. Aroma of citrus, white grapes, dope. Sweet with rather anonymous malt, nice hops - NS is a very pushy hop - firm bitterness. Pretty good.

From a 500ml can on 17/3/2026. Pours a hazy deep golden with a smallish head. The nose is mainly citrus with some tropical notes. There's lots going on fruit wise with pineapple, nectarine and mango kicking things off, before you're hit with lots of zesty citrus - mandarin, lemon and lime, finishing with a moderate lingering bitterness. Has a silky mouthfeel with average carbonation. Balanced and moreish. Lovely stuff.

Can. Just unclear pale amber with a cm of white head. Aroma of pine, peach, Meyer lemon, light bread. Lots of citrus and some herbal notes. The malt side of things gets a bit crowded out. Medium high bitterness.

From a 500ml can on 27/1/2026. Pours a hazy medium golden with a smallish head. The nose is lovely - fruity, floral and honeyed. Tastes even better, with masses of zesty orange, honey and some biscuity notes, giving strong US East Coast vibes Has a satisfying tangy bitterness at the back with a slightly warming finish that confirms the heft of beer. Has a silky mouthfeel with moderate carbonation. This is a sensational, perfectly balanced delight.

Another delightful Cake Eater. Aromas of pineapple, peach, mango and fairy floss. It has a lovely creamy mouthfeel and some nice citrus notes to cut through the sweetness. It really is a cracker.

From a 500ml can on 15/11/2025. Pours a hazy medium golden with a medium head. The nose features lots of zesty citrus and a touch of peach. Citrus dominates on the sip too - while there's some orange and peach up front, it's dominated by strong notes of lemon, lime and grapefruit, with a pretty firm bitterness as the back with lots of zesty citrus rind. Has a slightly silky palate and moderate carbonation. Full on for a relatively little beer, with lots of complexity and character. Terrific stuff.

Can. Gold, white head. Floaty citrus aroma with lemon blossoms, grapefruit, crackers. Quite hoppy but not so much that the lager palate disappears - it's clean with light bready notes. Lots of citrus, some floral notes, fairly bitter. Not much character but snappy enough.

Aromas of coffee, chocolate and toast. The toast is very strong in the mouth, with some citrus notes and coffee dominating the chocolate. It has a smooth mouthfeel, with only that toasty, coffee aftertaste perhaps slightly stronger than I'd like but it's a small criticism.
