Thanks to my sister-in-law, Sarah, for the xmas prezzie. Clear deep amber beer, small pale tan head. Palate is light, dry and has a decent fine crispness. Smooth dry malts, very mild sweetness and some earthy character. Mellow floral bitterness. Decent tangy fruits, a trace of BlackBerry. Smooth dry finish leaves a mild fruity bitter linger. Quite juicy if dry and fairly drinkable.

Smooth dry malts, a modest sweetness. Mild ripe orange, a tiny whisper of the promised blackcurrant. Very modest hop spice. Light dry crisp finish. Clean and drinkable.

Decent tangy orange, slightly sharp. Whisper of fresher orange. Dry finish. Pretty well balanced and also pretty drinkable.
