Hazy golden appearance. Macclesfield FC achieved Pure Joy today in their historic largest FA Cup win ever by divisional places. The beer is enjoyable too, session material, which is tropical fruity and mildly sticky-sweet. It comes across initially as a little weak in texture but after supping for a while this disappears

On keg at Crow Inn, Sheffield - Slightly hazy orange brew, thick white top. Solid fruit punch character, lots of tropical fruits, really syrupy, finishes with a clean lemony citrus tang.

Dark brown porter. Live And Let Die was the 8th Bond film. A little dense, not too much 'pie' character here, it's fairly regular in porter terms, pretty decent too with a light sweetness over roasted, which are in the background, and best in aroma. It's milky-smooth too.

Ali G used an extended version of this beer name to express approval. Hazy golden fruity IPA with a lower-end citrus influence, but not particularly sweet either. There's a few sugars to enjoy and a strength that provides plenty of body. Gassy mouth feel.

Hazy pale gold with a bubbly / frothy white head and a juicy fruit aroma. Spritzy and fresh, grapefruit bitterness with tropical fruit notes and a dry bitter finish.

Hazy light golden beer. It was Mr Mann in 'Little Britain' that always wanted a Pirate Memory Game, that's 'not too piratey'. This one is not too citrusy, although there's enough to provide a very lightly sweet citric flavour here. Slightly watery, but its texture is fine enough. Fair aroma

Black, but might as well be red given the high amount of jam in this one. It doesn't dominate aroma though, there's some dark malty notes here including chocolate. Quite smooth texture. Bob Marley's 'Jamming' was playing in the last supermarket I was in.
