From a 500ml can on 27/4/2022. Pours an opaque reddy pink with a medium pink head. Has a light berry nose. Tastes of tart raspberries, with not much pastry character at all. Finishes firmly tart. Medium bodied with average carbonation. A pedestrian sour that doesn't present as advertised. Disappointing.

From a 500ml can on 21/4/2022. Pours a hazy golden with a small head. Has a mild fruity spicy nose. Tastes of citrus and tropical fruit with lots of vanilla at the back. Has a quite sharp tangy, spicy bitterness. Has a silky mouthfeel and average carbonation. I really like this one - intense, unusual, complex and, most importantly, extremely tasty.

Can. Gold with a white head. Grainy aroma with lemon, very light smoke. Light bodied. The smoke is a bit bacony upon a taste. Slight bitterness. OK, a bit tentative.

Can. Amber with a near white head. Aroma of singed caramel, light herbal notes. Sweet with more caramel than biscuit before it jolts to decent (considering it turns out on a closer look to be a year old) bitterness.

From a 500ml can on 13/4/2022. Pours a hazy dirty golden with a biggish head. Has a modest nose of ripe tropical fruit. Tastes of papaya, passionfruit and a bit of pineapple with a modest tangy finish. Has a silky mouthfeel and moderate carbonation. Very solid without being particulalry remarkable.

From a 500ml can on 30/3/2022. Mr Banks Brewing seems to have morphed into Banks Brewing, with the 'Mr' dispatched from recent beers. Pour s a hazy golden with a small to medium head. Has a modest citrus and tropical nose. Tastes medium to high sweet with orange, mandarin, coconut and a bit of passionfruit, with a mildly tangy bitterness finishing off proceedings. Has a silky mouthfeel and average carbonation. A decent hazy DIPA but doesn't really stand out for mine.

A pleasant NEIPA, but it lacks guts. Not up to the usual Banks standards. Aromas of grapefruit, lemon, grass, honey, coriander and biscuit. Most of that just doesn't appear in the mouth, and the finish is a little short.
