500ml clear glass bottle from Amble Tesco. Pours dark reddish brown, no head. Strong caramel and toffee on the nose, fruitcake and demerara sugar. Taste is sweet. Light body, watery finish. Not my sort of thing at all.

24th Apr 14, been cutting the lawns, need a refreshing pint: this should do the job. 500ml Bottle: BBD 28th Oct 14, poured into a vase shaped pint glass. Almost lager like in appearance, although the snowy white head was thicker and stayed. Mild citrus in the aroma which became full on in the taste, grapefruit and lemon feel to both the smell and flavours. Refreshing enough, but I’m fed up with golden brews that have a citrus bent and this is smack in the middle of that style. I’ve scored it kindly because it is well made and although it’s not for me I know many others love these type of brew.

Cask at a nicholson’s near Covent Garden. It pours dark ruby with small beige head. The nose is toasty, blueberry, jammy, roasted malt, earth and liquorice. The toasty, earth, mild acidity, roasted malt, dark fruits and jam with a dry, fruity finish. Light-medium body and soft carbonation. A bit weak, but not bad.
