660ml bottle. Clear gold with spotted white head. Standard grain and corn malt character on the nose. Taste starts the same but there is a light citric character and reasonable grassy bitter bite. Light to mid bodied, well carbonated as standard. Its ok for the style.

Can from Aldi, Coleshill. Clear gold, small white head. Aroma of light caramel, toasted grains, floral and earthy hop. Taste of biscuit, caramel, quite a floral-herbal hop with bitter finish. Light bodied but some slickness, drying. OK.

Look: Clear gold, nice looking carbonation, moderate sized white head. Aroma: Lemonade, waxy lemon, light pale malts Taste: Quite tasty: lemon/lemonade comes through well, a touch of pith, sugars, light lager malts and a grassy bitterness. Palate: Light to medium bodied, slick with a modest dryness and soft carbonation. Overall: Surprisingly very nice. Good lemonade quality, refreshing, sweet but not overbearing, still has some grassy bitterness from lager.

Can from Aldi, Coleshill. Clear bright amber with nice looking off-white head. Aroma is floral with a hint of toasted grains and spice. Taste has a toasted grain, flora, touch of citrus, grassy bitterness in the finish with some light spice tingle. Medium bodied, semi-drying. Much better than expected.

Look: Clear gold, small white head, poor retention. Aroma: Slight toffee, tea, sweet floral, cereals, a touch of cardboard. Taste: Not great; grains, sweet floral resin, paper, tea, bitter. Palate: A bit thin, semi-drying, low on carbonation. Overall: For a basic lager not worth the £1.69

Can from Aldi, Coleshill. Clear gold, small white head. Light tropical pith, peel, grass on the nose. Its very bitter and grassy with hints of grapefruit and other tropical notes. There are hints towards astringency but the mouthfeel is ok with some over-dryness but nice soft to frothy carbonation and lightness towards the end. Below average for the style but at £1.69 is it worth it? Not quite in my view.

440ml can. Clear gold with small white head. Aroma of grapefruit, light citrus pith, pale malts; pleasant enough if a little dull in the hoppiness. Taste is somewhat dry and bitter with grapefruit, tangy orange, cereals. Easy drinking slick mouthfeel which is a nice counter to the dryness. Its ok.

Bottle. Clear amber-brown with small tight white head, very good retention. Aroma is quite malty with caramel, a touch of tea and spice but not overly hoppy. Taste again malty with caramel, a touch of cardboard, tea, spice, a slight tangy citric note in a semi-bitter drying finish. Slick light to medium body. Its ok.

330ml can. Clear gold with thin white head. Typical lemonade shandy aroma; decent lemon. Taste of fairly basic pilsner with a reasonable lemonade addition; grainy and tangy. Not much of a crisp finish. Its ok.
