Bottle split at Cotts Convention V, T Hanks, 08/06/19. Pale golden blonde with a decent off white cap. Nose is grass, pale malts, straw, papery twang. Taste comprises pale malts, cereals, grains, pretty basic all round. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close. Sub par even for a PLCS (pale lager country scope).

Pours a slight pinkish orange with little foam, smells all of sugary passionfruit. Flavour is all fruit soda and beer a distant second. Mouthfeel is sweet. It's an okay sweet beer soda.

Smells all of lemon soda, no beer. Has a foamless clear gold body when poured into a glass. Flavour is soft lemon, vague lager beer. Mouthfeel has good carbonation. It's an okay shandy, on the sugary side.

Has very modest soda pop foam and clear copper body with heavy carbonation, smells of huge sweet ginger, slightly fresh anyway. Flavour is big sweet ginger, sugar, no beer detected. Mouthfeel has a kind of cloying sweetness. It's an okay sweet shandy if you like gjnger and soda.
