Bottle, picked up at Morrissons, Banbury, Oxon 28-08-08 had this in Dorset Pours rusty red in colour with slight pinkish hue to the head, very clear. Syrupy summer fruit aroma with blackberries the most noticeable amongst the artificial tasting flavour’s. Too sweet, bit alcopoppy, any beer in here has long since left the party, despite all the criticism I didn’t hate it.

500ml bottle from Morrisons. A strange colour, amber but with a raspberry tint, slightly hazy and looking natural rather than artificial, the head is thin and very white. The aroma is attractive, slightly sour with raspberry and strawberry - again quite natural. Again surprisingly tart and sour in the mouth, with predominantly raspberry flavours, and a deep underlying bitterness from the hops that slowly rises, bringing with it some malty body. Overall an interesting beer.
According to the label This is the first in a range of seasonal beers that have been developed from an exclusive partnership between Morrisons and Titanic Brewery. I’ll certainly be on the look out for their next offering.

Poured bright golden in colour, little head, didn’t taste like a typical Wychwood beer. Tasted a bit too sweet for me hops were almost non-existent but it was quite malty and quite glugable.

500ml bottle. Straw coloured with a quickly fading white head; fresh citrus aroma; sweet malty flavour with some honey and citrus, then slightly tart, but lacking any real finish. A refreshing summer ale.

500ml bottle from Morrisons, Folkestone. I managed to get the last bottle on the shelf. Chestnutin colour with thin beige head. Good choc malts with some orange fruit on the aroma. Really nice malts. Slightly herby. Good earthy supermarket beer. Wonderful malts throughout and then drying spicy hop with good toffee. I agree with the others, this is a good ESB
