Keg @ The Abbey. Pours a hazed pinkish red, small off-white pinkish head. Aroma has nice light red berries. Taste is crisp, a touch lactic, pleasant red berries, redcurrants, soft raspberries, good crisp clarity of flavour overall. Decent.

Can thanks to Ben. Appearance - pink to red, attractive pink/white lacing. Nose - definitely raspberries in there. Taste - more raspberries, perhaps some redcurrant coming in as the more tart side of things. Also, sweet red fruit in here. Palate - light to medium bodied, very tangy and close to dry. Overall - nice.

I was expecting something harsher than this. It's mellow, remarkably so given the hops and the strength of it. Not that much aroma. Zesty, tangy citrus flavour but not that strong. The tartness of it does linger a little though which lends it something and it's quite smooth and fresh. Decent enough.

Can picked up at Sainsburys. It pours Irn Bru orange with a decent foamy white head. The aroma is sweetish, oily orange, kumquat, grainy, Turkish delight, gummy bears and wine gums. The taste is dry, bitter, floral, grassy, orange blossom, pithy, zesty, orange peel and peppery spice with a drying finish. Average carbonation and fine, prickly carbonation. Not sure the balance is quite there, but there is quite a bit to it.

Can thanks to Ben. Appearance - cloudy golden orange. Thin head. Nose - dried apricot plus orange. Pungent guava. Taste - more orange. Mango this time rather than guava. Palate - close to medium bodied with a dry tangy middle and finish. Overall - good beer.

Can thanks to Ben. Appearance - cloudy yellow. Thin head. Nose - malt bag, sweetcorn. Slight mushy pea thing going on. Taste - citrus and sweetcorn. Palate - light bodied and dry through middle and finish. Overall - the nose was challenging but the taste was much better.

Can from Morrisons it pours clear yellow with a small white head. The aroma is toasty grain, cereal, sweet lemony vibes, lemon curd, grass, lemongrass and straw. The taste is crisp, dry, light bitterness, light lemony citrus, pithy, toasty grain, cereal, grass and straw with a dry finish. Lightish body and moderate, prickly carbonation. Not a huge amount to it really. Drinkable enough anyways.
