500ml can. Murky orange, white head. Aroma of guava, papaya, peach. Taste is the same, ripe sweet tropical fruits, guava, papaya, peach, good hop bitterness at the end to counter the sweet start. Full bodied, soft, smooth.
Another great addition to the series though I think it's the lowest rating I've given for one of these.

Isle Of Wight Holiday Beer#13. Golden, excellent body, flavour is achilles heel here, it's not quite stated enough, but the low alcohol content accounts for this. Fruity enough sour though.

Isle Of Wight Holiday Beer#12. Golden, hazy, very fruity gose, making it a mild example of the style. Decent regardless. Found in Portsmouth prior to heading to the island.

Isle Of Wight Holiday Beer#14. Pale cloudy brown, not a particularly good look, but the amount of blueberries in here is huge, evident in both aroma and taste, and it's a rich but very appealing beer for it.
