Bottle from Frimley Waitrose. Tangy stone fruit-esque aroma, I guess it's marula. Dark gild. A vague hint of a haze to it. Thin white head recedes to pretty much nothing. Some sweet fruit and sour edge but it's predominantly quinine bitter. Medium bodied. Slick and complimented by soft carbonation. Astringent finish. It's alright. Probably not benefited from storage but it's no NEIPA.

Bottle at home from Waitrose, 16th November 19. Pours a flat orange liquid. Aroma is synthetic orange chewits, candy, taste is light strawberry, rose, candy and a kind of unpleasant bitter fruity finish. It’s fine to glug back, but no NEIPA and grandiose title for the beer that lies within.
